The Day 2 field continues to shrink at a quick pace with 400 of the returning 609 players still around. They’ll now begin to adjust back to 9-handed play as they near the money bubble.

Michelle Shah is one of the players who bagged up chips in an earlier flight and played the PLO Event 3 on her day off. She made the final table and was part of a near-even chop among the last three. Shah would be happy to make back-to-back final tables today.

Jessica Meir began the day with a top five stack and is now chasing down chip leader David Maddox. The recent addition to her stack came when she eliminated Bryce McVay in a three-way pot with a turned set of sevens against his flopped top pair. The hand moved her over 400,000 and in contention for the lead.
