We are almost down to 100 players, and there are only a handful of big names left. Two of them are at the same table, as Justin Young was just moved to Tim West's table. Young has struggled so far in this WSOP but has over $3 million in tournament winnings, including a final table at the WPT Championship last month. Tim West has already registered two cashes at this series for $22,000 a piece, and will be looking to beat that mark in this tournament.
Action folded to Kyle Cartwright in middle position and he put in a raise to 5,100. Action folded all the way around to the player in the big blind and he slide his entire stack forward, approximately 40,000 total. Cartwright snap-called and quickly flipped over his .
The big blind was clearly dejected as he turned over 
. The 
flop made things interesting as it paired the big blind's jack; however, he still needed another to steal the pot. The 
turn provided some chop outs, but the 
fell harmlessly on the river. Cartwright clapped his hands together in celebration as the dealer pushed him the pot.

Having started the day with 362 players, and a little more than four levels into the day, we're already down to 126 players remaining. If you're curious as to how many we may have left at the end of the day, here's some stats on the other two $1,500 No-Limit Hold Em events that have taken place at this year's series.
Event #18
Total Entrants: 3157
Players at Start of Day 2: 469
Players at the End of Day 2: 34
Event #28
Total Entrants: 2500
Players at Start of Day 2: 349
Players at the End of Day 2: 28
At the start of Day 2, Event #18 had 14.85% of its field remaining while Event #28 had a little less than 14% of it's field left. At start of play today, we had 12.8% of the starting field still battling it out.
After their respective Day 2s, Event #18 was left with 1.07% of its starting field and Event #28 was left with 1.12% of its starting field.
Assuming that today's event plays out similarly to the other two, we're guessing we'll be left with around 31 players at the end of play today.
