$50,000 High Roller: Yang Wang And Fedor Holz In The Lead For Day 2
It's time for Day 2 of Event #83: $50,000 High Roller at the 2023 World Series of Poker, hosted by Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas.
On Day 1, 133 entrants were registered by the end of the day, which is a new record for this event. However, only 44 players bagged their chips after Level 12.
Yang Wang finished at the top of the chip counts with 2,175,000 chips. He is the only player who will start Day 2 with more than 2 million chips, while Fedor Holz (1,990,000) and Stefan Schillhabel (1,915,000) ended Day 1 just below this mark.

Players like Jake Schindler (1,740,000), 2022 WSOP Main Event winner Espen Jørstad (1,340,000), or Nacho Barbero (1,305,000) also had their names in the top ten at the end of Day 1.
The competition will be tough, as Wesley Fei (1,295,000), Sergio Aguero (880,000), Daniel Negreanu (685,000), Jason Koon (650,000), Alejandro Lococo (645,000), 2020 WSOP Main Event champion Damian Salas (590,000), and David Peters (550,000) have all advanced to Day 2.
There will also be a competition in the competition for Leon Sturm (445,000) and Mikita Badziakouski (360,000), who aim to win another WSOP $50,000 High Roller in their careers.
Late registration is still open until the start of Day 2, so a few new players may join the ones already listed. One reentry is allowed, so it could be the the defending champion Joao Vieira, who was eliminated at the end of Day 1.
Day 2 will restart at Level 13 (blinds 10,000/20,000, ante 20,000) and will end when five players remain. To reach this goal, they'll play as many 40-minute levels as needed, with a 15-minute break every 3 levels. There will also be a 60-minute dinner break after Level 21 (around 7:30 p.m.).
