Event 15: Short Field; Long Day

$2,200 Six-Max No Limit Hold’em (Freezeout)
Level 11: 500/1,000/100 Ante

There are only 23 players remaining of the starting 94 in Event 15 and they are scheduled to play down to a winner today. It would appears to be a short day but look are deceiving. The hour-long levels and deep structure will give them plenty of room to make moves.

Average stacks is ~50 big blinds at the start of Day 2 with all but seven players below that mark. Shannon Shorr finished with the lead after 10 levels yesterday with Kevin Schulz and Scott Efron not far behind.

They still have some work to do to make into the money with just 12 of them getting a piece of the $200,000 prize pool. A min-cash will earn them $5,500 while the winner will cash out for $53,920.

Most of the players have taken their seats and we are about to get underway.
