We had 2,958 entries in the opening, 423 came back for Day 2 and 14 hours of play was not enough to crown a champion. There are still ten players remaining with a chance to earn the title and they return this afternoon at 2pm to play out the final table.

Jeff Kessler comes back as the chip leader and looking for his second SHRP title to go along with a Rock ‘N’ Roll Poker Open Seniors win. WSOP bracelet winner Arkadiy Tsinis is the shortest stack but he can run it up with the slow structure.

We have plenty of talent from top to bottom and it should be a great afternoon of poker before we award the trophy along with more than $250,000.
