WPTDeepStacks-Tampa Event 1 guitar trophy

The clock strikes 12-noon in Tampa and Day 2 of the WPTDeepStacks $570 Deep Stack is underway. The event kicked off Thursday with the first of six starting flights and went on to draw a massive field of 738 entries. The strong turnout generated a prize pool of $369,000 that handily bested the $200,000 guarantee. Only the top 72 in today’s Day 2 pay with a min-cash worth $1,070. The champion, meanwhile, pockets $85,640 along with a guitar trophy.
