Welcome to Day 2c of the 2019 WSOP Main Event!
The 2019 World Series of Poker Main Event continues today as the survivors from Day 1c return for Day 2c action!
Leading the massive field of 3,664 (which will be added to by any extra Day 2c registrants) is James Henson, who sits a little under 10,000 ahead of Mike "Timex" McDonald for the chip lead. Former WSOP November Niner Tom Cannuli sits in tenth, while some of the big names lurking behind include Kahle Burns (269,600), Adam Friedman (263,100), Kevin Martin (220,600), Jack Salter (220,500), and Garrett Adelstein (216,700).
Yesterday Day 2ab saw 1,087 players make it to Day 3, with Timothy Su the overnight chip leader with 791,000 chips. Will that total be eclipsed today? Here are the frontrunners for that challenge.
