With only 37 left in Event #59: $2,500 Big Bet Mix, there is one name that stands out among the list of players remaining: Daniel Negreanu. Always one of the fan favorites, some may be surprised seeing Negreanu’s name here after last week he tweeted that he wasn’t going to be playing many more events at the series. But perhaps this is Negreanu’s chance to finally lock up that seventh bracelet after falling just inches short earlier in the series. He sits in second place as the day begins, just behind Iraj Parvizi who ended Day 1 with a monstrous chip stack.
But Negreanu isn’t the only recognizable name in the field. There is a heap of multiple bracelet winners also in the hunt such as Brian Rast who bagged up 126,750 on Saturday morning, or Ryan Hughes who bagged up 126,025. Tuan Le, Brandon Cantu, Marco Johnson, Jason Mercier, Mike Matusow, and Benny Glaser round out that list of multiple bracelet winners still active. And with such a powerhouse field, action is sure to be worth following.
Players begin the day just seven places away from the money with only 30 collecting a prize. A min-cash in this event will lock up $3,750 while an appearance at the six-handed final table will earn $16,793. Of course, everyone is really looking for that $112,232 first-place prize and the chance to add another (or a first) World Series of Poker gold bracelet to their collection.
Once the money bubble burst, action is sure to pop off and PokerNews will be here for all of it starting at 2 p.m. PDT so make sure you’re tuned in.
