It's a Race to the Money on Day 2 of Event #75: $10,000 Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better Championship

Cliff Josephy is among the chip leaders for Day 2

While all eyes during the 2023 World Series of Poker will be set on the start of the $10,000 Main Event, mixed game specialists from all over the world return to their seats at the Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas to determine another world champion in the next three days.

So far, Event #75: $10,000 Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better Championship attracted a field of 247 entries and accumulated a prize pool of $2,297,100. Both numbers are subject to change since late registration remains open until the start of Day 2 at 1 p.m. local time in the Paris Purple section. Whether or not the record of previous years with 284 runners will be surpassed remains to be seen.

More than half of the field was eliminated on Day 1 with 116 players advancing. The returning hopefuls are led by Michael Banducci (387,500), but a trio of players is only a handful of big blinds behind including Michael Wang (364,500), Taylor Paur (361,500), and Rob Hollink (353,000).

The two-time WSOP bracelet winner and 2016 WSOP Main Event third placer finisher Cliff Josephy can also be found among the big stacks as well and returns with a very healthy 296,000 chips. Other notables in the overnight top ten include Dylan Weisman (276,000) and Dzmitry Urbanovich (253,000).

Top Ten Chip Counts for Day 2

Rank	Player	Country	Chip Count	Big Blinds
1	Michael Banducci	United States	387,500	155
2	Michael Wang	United States	364,500	146
3	Taylor Paur	United States	361,500	145
4	Rob Hollink	Netherlands	353,000	141
5	Cliff Josephy	United States	296,000	118
6	Dylan Weisman	United States	276,000	110
7	Sterling Lopez	United States	261,000	104
8	Dzmitry Urbanovich	Poland	253,000	101
9	Vladimir Belekhov	Russia	249,500	100
10	Quentin Krueger	Canada	240,000	96

Some of the biggest names in the world of poker will return to their seats for the race toward the money bubble in this WSOP Championship Event but the defending champion Eli Elezra will not be among them, as he was one of dozens of casualties on Day 1.

Day 2 commences with Level 11, which features blinds of 1,000/2,500 and a 2,500 big blind ante. Prior to the start of play, late entrants can still enter the fray with a fresh starting stack of 60,000 and start their journey with 24 big blinds. Once cards are in the air, registration will close and the prize pool information will be made public.

A total of ten 60-minute levels are scheduled for today and it is expected that the money bubble will burst during that time. However, another two tournament days await before they crown a winner.

Follow along right here on PokerNews as the live reporting team will be on the floor to provide as many of the scoops, three-quarters and split pots in Event #75: $10,000 Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better Championship.
