Day 2 of the $1,500 Limit Shootout event closed out with ten winners advancing to the final table for Day 3. Sixty players took their seat across ten six-handed tables and it took eight levels for all the tables to finish.
Advancing to Day 3 are recent bracelet winner Eugene Katchalov, Dom Denotaristefani, Mathieu Jacqmin, Jordan Rich, Stephen Bass, Christoph Kwon, Justin Pechie, Dale Eberle, Adam Tyburski and Ari Engel.
Katchalov will be going for his second bracelet of the series. He would be the first this year to walk away with two. Based on experience and equal starting stacks Katchalov looks to be the odds on favorite to take down the table.
Those that played today and didn’t move on were Noah Boeken, Brock Parker, Noah Boeken, Hoyt Corkins, Victor Ramdin, Al “Sugarbear” Barbieri, Randy Lew, Bryan Huang, Jameson Painter and Todd Witteles.
Hal Lubarsky come close to becoming the first visually impaired player to make a WSOP final table. He fell just short after getting heads up with Engel, but could not press through Engel’s chip advantage.
