Event #65: $5,000 No-Limit Hold'em (6-Handed)
Giorno 2 completo
An exhausting second day of Event #65: $5,000 No-Limit Hold'em 6-Handed has drawn to an end at the 2023 World Series of Poker. Another massive field was recorded for this event with a total of 1,199 entries, creating a prizepool of $5,046,200. There will be 48 players that still have a chance at glory by capturing the first-place prize of $938,244 and the WSOP gold bracelet.
After a prolonged Day 2 to this event, caused by the long late registration lines, the tournament staff agreed with the players to push back the restart of Day 3 to 1 p.m. local time. That didn't seem to phase the Brazilian contingent down the stretch, as they finished in the top two spots of the leaderboard. Vitor Dzivielevski edged out his countrymate Pedro Garagnani for the top spot heading into Day 3.

Dzivielevski, the older brother of Yuri who has three WSOP titles to his name, is looking to make his first mark on the WSOP stage. The Brazilian had an upward trend throughout much of the day en route to bagging up a stack of 3,425,000 chips. Garagnani, on the other hand, came into the day with a sub-average stack but rallied late in the night to join the leaders. Garagnani can often be seen in the high-roller circuit throughout the year but is still looking for his breakout victory in his short career.
There were many former bracelet winners in the field and some of them were able to able to maneuver through the field and bag a healthy stack. Norbert Szecsi (2,345,000), Tyler Cornell (2,125,000), Danny Tang (1,940,000), Day 1 chip leader Yuliyan Kolev (1,540,000), Ryan Leng (1,425,000), and Scott Seiver (615,000) will all be looking to add to their collection over the next couple of days.
It was a delayed start to the afternoon as over 100 late entries showed up at the crack of noon which halted play for at least 40 minutes. When the cards finally went in the air on Day 2, there was a total of 1,199 entries and just shy of 500 players still remaining.
Many of the new entries were the first to hit the rail as a starting stack was only worth 20 big blinds at this point. The field was quickly thinning out through the opening couple of levels with only 180 players getting paid. That number would be reached just after the second break and it came in a hurry. As the dealers were told to finish the hand they were on and hold up, there were multiple eliminations that took place. No hand-for-hand was necessary as the field was trimmed to the necessary number to reach the money.
It was a mad dash to the payout desk following the bubble burst, as many of the short stacks were unable to spin it up. Some of the early notables bowing out of the event included Eric Wasserson, Stephen Song, Ryan Laplante, and a couple of Germans who have been absent from the poker scene as of late. Rainer Kempe and Steffen Sontheimer have been known to compete at the highest stakes in poker but have not been in the live tournament scene for some time. Both players managed to squeak into the money but were unable to make a deep run.
Phil Ivey was attempting to make another deep run and have a chance at adding to his WSOP bracelet collection as he quietly went about his business. Ivey was one of the players to take advantage of the late registration on Day 2 and managed to 10x his stack at one point. However, in one of the last levels of the night, Ivey's pocket jacks were defeated by a big blind special that flopped two pair, sending the 10-time bracelet winner to the rail.
The fast-paced action continued throughout the day right up until the final hands of the night. The field was dwindled down to just 48 players after another 10 levels were played on Day 2, and they will be returning with an average stack of around 50 big blinds.
The remaining 48 players will return to the felt at 1:00 p.m. local on June 30 and play down to the final table, where the winner will be crowned on Saturday afternoon. The action will be resuming on Level 21 with the blinds at 10,000/25,000 and a 25,000 big blind ante.
Each player has already locked up at least $16,261 thus far, but the pay jumps will become more significant as the tournament progresses.

William Stanford raised to 45,000 in the hijack and Pedro Garagnani three-bet to 175,000 from the small blind. Stanford called and the dealer spread the flop of 8♦6♥2♠.
Garagnani led out with a bet of 185,000 and Stanford quickly called to see the 6♠ on the turn. Garagnani reached for another bet of 410,000 and Stanford still called. The A♦ completed the board and both players tapped the table. Garagnani tabled 10♠10♥ which was just enough to edge out Stanford's 9♣9♦.

Each table will play three more hands before the players bag and tag their chips.
Action was picked up on the flop with players heads up, the board reading 8♥7♣8♣ and a massive pot of 800,000 already in the middle. Scott Seiver moved all in, slightly covering Cody Jones stack of roughly 900,000.
Jones went deep into the tank, clearly faced with a tough decision.
"Jacks, I assume?" Seiver asked his opponent after about two minutes.
Jones quickly made the call to put himself at risk.
Cody Jones: J♦J♠
Scott Seiver: A♣K♣
Jones was ahead with the overpair but had to fade a lot of outs from Seiver, who had two overcards and the nut-flush draw. The turn came the 7♦ and the river came the J♣, giving Seiver the nut flush but Jones a full house to scoop the biggest pot of the tournament so far.

There was a raise to 40,000 from under the gun and Harsukhpaul Sangha shoved all in for 480,000 in the cutoff. Leon Sturm asked for a count from the big blind and then reshoved all in, forcing out the initial raiser.
Harsukhpaul Sangha: 8♥8♣
Leon Sturm: K♠K♥
Sturm woke up with pocket kings in the big blind and had Sangha in big trouble. The board ran out 10♦9♦4♦3♥5♣ and Sangha was unable to come from behind as he headed to the payout desk.

Angelina Rich raised to 30,000 in the hijack and Lyudmil Ivanov reraised to 70,000 on her left. The action folded back to Rich who just called to see a flop of 9♠6♥3♥. Rich checked to Ivanov who continued with a bet of 40,000 and Rich called.
The turn brought the 5♣ and both players checked to the 7♥ on the river. Rich moved all in for 250,000 on the river and Ivanov was forced to lay his hand down.
