Lily Kiletto

Event 10 drew a nice group of players to the biggest buy-in tournament on the 2017 Seminole Hard Rock Lucky Heart Poker Open schedule and only 25 of them are still around for Day 2.

The returning players include some top players including Faraz Jaka, Jake Bazeley, Jon Borenstein, Zo Karim, Paul Balzano, Lily Kiletto, and Matthew Wantman. Alex Foxen returns to action after going deep in the WPTDeepStacks Main Event and Joe Harwood will be playing down here while daughter Loni Harwood is in the final 27 of the Main Event.

Only 18 of the 25 will earn some of the prize pool, so they still have a little work ahead of them when they restart at 2pm.
