Players are back from their second break and some familiar faces continue their quest for a piece of the $500,000 Guaranteed prize pool.

Mukul Pahuja (Hicksville, NY) made his Seminole Hard Rock Poker Showdown debut in Event 5, but failed to cash.  He has $2.3 million in career recorded tournament earnings, but Pahuja just busted his short stack and has three more flights to re-enter.

Mike Beasley (Hollywood, FL) watched Pahuja exit his table and is fairing better. Beasley has an average stack as he looks to add to his $1.3 million in career earnings.

Two successful woman pros who went deep in Event 5 are still in the field. Marsha Wolak (Sarasota, FL), fresh off her chop ($25,325) and Amanda Musumeci (Bensalem, PA) who finished 30th of nearly 2,400 entries are grinding.

Musumeci has $900,000 in career tournament earnings, while Wolak was the 2011 WSOP Ladies event bracelet winner.

TJ Shulman (Duluth, GA) is another familiar face. He has $356,000 in career earnings and ran his 1.1k short stack up to 90k before the last break.
