Aftab Shakoor

The Event 2 field was down to 19 players when Aftab Shakoor open-shoved from the small blind for 290,000 and the big blind called with a similar stack.

Shakoor: Ad2c
Big Blind: Ac5c

Two small aces and the Kc9c6s flop made it look like a possible chop. The Kh turn had the chop even more likely but the 5s turn sent him out in 19th place. Tournament staff paused the clock for a two-table redraw.

In the meantime, Stephen Horniacek took a chunk from Harjinder to take the lead. Horniachek is up to 2,825,000 while Chawla is still okay with 1,500,000.

Donald Williams

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.

  1. Donald Williams – 534,000 (107 bb)
  2. Harjinder Chawla – 492,000 (98 bb)
  3. Manny Minaya – 466,500 (93 bb)
