$1,650 Deepest Stack No Limit Hold’em
Level 16: 2,500/5,000/500 Ante
Players Remaining: 99/357

Day 2 of the $1,650 buy-in Deepest Stack event is off and running. Late registration was available until just moments ago and it appears the field grew a touch from the 357 entries that took their seats over the course of the first three starting flights. We will post the final attendance figure and payout information shortly.

Leading the action to start play is Flight A’s Qasem Jamhour (who’s a few minutes tardy for the restart). Jamhour sits on a stack of 559,500 and is one of two players over the 500,000 mark. The other, Daniel Clemente, claims 553,000.

Others remaining in the hunt for a piece of the $535,000+ prize pool include Stu Paterson (293,500), Chad Eveslage (278,500), David Diaz (218,000), Seminole Hard Rock Poker team members Jessica Dawley (180,500), Sheddy Siddiqui (171,000), Mukul Pahuja (155,000) and Loni Harwood (72,000) along with her father Joel (123,000) as well as Event 1 winner Steve McKoy (123,500) and Phil Hui (100,000).

The first six levels of today are 60 minutes in length while all others are 90 minutes. Although both headliners before it have required an extra day of play, today’s action is scheduled to play to a winner.

We will post the full payout information shortly and from there the next update will come when the bubble bursts.
