Event 5: Day 2 Underway

$150 No Limit Hold’em (Re-Entry)
Level 15: 1.5k/3k/500 ante

All the starting flights for Event 5 have run their course and all the remaining players are back in the ballroom looking for a new champion. The tournament drew 2,159 entrants and just 240 of them survived to make it into Day 2 but only 126 of them will make the money.

Min-cash for the bottom spots is $363 while the winner will take home $55,715, a fine return on the $150 investment. Dinh Nguyen will begin the day with 442,00 and the chiplead but TJ Shulman is not far behind with 411,500. No one else is over 300,000 but that will change quickly.

They will play 40-minute levels and won’t stop until there is a winner, or 3am, whichever comes first.
