The four opening flights of Event 2 are in the books and today they get down to the business of finding our second WSOP Circuit champ of the series. The tournament drew 1,189 entrants over the previous two days but only 95 of them survived their flight to return to The Pavilion at noon to restart the action.

Donald Williams went huge in Flight C and hits the restart as the chip leader, the only player over 500K. Harjinder Chawla, Manny Minaya, David Vurgait, and Bryce McVay round out the top five returning stacks.

Cards go back in the air at noon with 20 minutes remaining in Level 17, blinds at 2,500/5,000/5,000 ante, the average stack at 188,000 (38 bb), and nearly $66,000 awaiting the champ.

We will pick up coverage of Event 2 after the first break and bring you all the updates until we have one player holding the ring.
