Day 2 Chip Counts | Day 2 Table Draws

All levels are 40 minutes in length with a one-hour dinner break occurring following Level 25 (about 6:30 p.m.). The plan for today is to play down to the final table before bagging and tagging the event’s finalists. Those still alive return tomorrow at noon and will play it out under the eyes of the live stream cameras.
