2008 WSOP Event #2 Continues

The 2008 World Series of Poker is in full swing, with the second Event, $1,500 NL Hold’em that got underway May 31st has yet to see a final table. Record setting entries revealed a packed field of 3,929 players.

Entering day two, the prize bubble was ruptured as Robert McLaughlin took the honors. In fact, upon reaching the money bubble, players were flying to the rails so fast, there was a line at the cashier’s booth. Commentator Jimmy Sommerfeld jested, “Okay, players, we have a line at the cashier’s cage, so if you could start playing a little better, we can get this line down a little.”

As it stands now, 18 player remain, awaiting the chance to compete for a seat at the final table. The following competitors (with their respective chip stacks), will be seated shortly as 2008 WSOP Event #2 resumes shortly.
