Day 2 of Event #25: Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better Championship has wrapped from Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas, and after seven 90-minute levels of play, the field of 128 (102 returning players, plus 26 late registrants) was whittled down to just 21 contenders.
The event saw a record field of 212 entries, which created a prize pool of $1,971,600. A cool $492,795 is up top for the eventual winner as well as the WSOP gold bracelet.
The big story on Day 2 was that the bubble had burst with the top 32 players making the money. Michael Chow was the unfortunate player to leave empty-handed after his exit ensured that the remaining players would be guaranteed a payday of at least $16,386.
End of Day 2 Top 10 Chip Counts

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Jay Kerbel | United States | 1,065,000 | 53 | 27 |
| 2 | Jose Luis Velador | Mexico | 1,040,000 | 52 | 26 |
| 3 | Erik Seidel | United States | 1,010,000 | 51 | 25 |
| 4 | Johannes Becker | Germany | 1,010,000 | 51 | 25 |
| 5 | James Chen (US) | United States | 925,000 | 46 | 23 |
| 6 | Kyle Cartwright | United States | 880,000 | 44 | 22 |
| 7 | Robert Yass | United States | 650,000 | 33 | 16 |
| 8 | Ben Lamb | United States | 630,000 | 32 | 16 |
| 9 | John Hennigan | United States | 630,000 | 32 | 16 |
| 10 | Aaron Kupin | United States | 595,000 | 30 | 15 |
Jay Kerbel ended the day with the chip lead as one of only four players above the million chip mark, while Jose Luis Velador and Erik Seidel round out the top three stacks.
The likes of Damjan Radanov, Christopher Stephan and poker legend Sam Farha are on the other end of the spectrum and will begin Day 3 in need of a few double ups.
Late registration was open until the start of play today, and 26 players opted to hop into the mix. Brian Rast, Koray Aldemir and Poker Hall of Famers Phil Hellmuth and Todd Brunson were just some of the players who took advantage of the generous late registration time.
However, Hellmuth, Brunson, Rast, and Aldemir would only make cameo appearances, while Aaron Kupin, another Day 2 entrant, managed to grind his way into the money, eventually finishing the day tenth in chips.
After the bubble burst, Dan Shak, Nacho Barbero, and Corey Hochman found themselves on the wrong end of lady luck and had to settle for a little more than a min-cash. Kyle Ray was the last player to bust on Day 2 after he was unable to fade Bryce Yockey's straight flush and nut low.
The remaining players will return on June 12 at 1:00 p.m. local time to continue their quests for the coveted gold bracelet. Play will pick up at Level 18 with blinds at 10,000/20,000 and level 20,000/40,000. Stay tuned to PokerNews for live updates on all the action.

On a board of 6♦3♥2♥2♠7♥, Yarron Bendor called the bets of Bryce Yockey, who flipped over his J♠6♠3♠2♣ for a turned full house. Bendor instantly tossed his cards into the muck and the pot was awarded to Yockey, who finished the night on a high.

Kyle Ray was all-in from the big blind and side action unfolded between Bryce Yockey on the button and James Chen in the small blind. Chen bet the 10♣8♦5♦ flop for Yockey to call and the 4♦ turn brought the very same pattern. On the 2♦ river, Chen bet once more and Yockey raised to receive a quick call from Chen.
"Nut nut," Yockey announced and tabled the A♠K♣6♦3♦ for the nut low and a six-high straight flush. Chen tossed his cards towards the muck while Ray tabled his A♥7♥7♣5♠ briefly, while the dealer retrieved Chen's A♣8♥5♥4♣ to conclude the showdown.
Ray bowed out just shy of bagging in 22nd place for $17,923.

On a board of Q♠5♥3♦5♦7♦, Johannes Becker bet all the way and was called by Bryce Yockey. When the cards were revealed, Yockey's A♣K♦6♦5♠ earned just one quarter of the pot with half of the low as Becker's A♠Q♠6♣5♣ had the same low and fives full of queens.
At the same time on table 143, Jason Daly scooped David Williams with a king-high straight to boost his stack, too.

Yarron Bendor three-bet out of the small blind and received two callers including Kyle Ray, who was then the only one to stick around on the A♣7♠4♦ flop as James Chen folded. On the 3♣ turn, Bendor bet again for Ray to call, who also called another bet on the 10♠ river.
Bendor tabled the A♥A♦6♣3♥ for a set of aces and low, which beat the A♠10♥8♥3♠ of Ray to leave the latter on just over one big bet.

Erik Seidel raised from early position and was called by Ben Lamb in middle position. Pascal Leyo was down to his last big blind and tossed it in from late position, creating a side pot between Lamb and Seidel.
The flop rolled out J♥3♠K♦. Lamb raised a bet by Seidel and Seidel called. The 9♦ fell on the turn and this time Seidel slowed down with a check. Lamb bet and once again Seidel called.
The river brought the 10♥, completing the J♥3♠K♦9♦10♥ runout and both players checked.
Pascal Leyo: A♠4♥3♦2♠
Erik Seidel: A♦K♣8♦2♣
Ben Lamb: K♥7♥4♠3♣
Lamb would take the whole pot with two pair, kings and threes, sending Leyo to the rail in 23rd place.
