Event #49: $3,000 Freezeout No-Limit Hold'em
Giorno 2 completo
Day 2 of Event #49: $3,000 Freezeout No-Limit Hold’em of the 2024 World Series of Poker at the Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas began with 188 players and ended with only 13 after a long day of intense action between some of the best players in the game. Those remaining players advance to Day 3, which starts Friday at noon, where they will take their shot at what remains of the $3,342,840 prize pool, including a $523,195 grand prize.
Ending Day 2 with the best shot at that top prize was Ben Hoy, who bagged up the chip lead with 7,300,000. Hoy caught fire late in the day as he started to take every chip within his grasp after the final break. At one point he had close to 11 million, but dropped a few hands in the final level to sink back down closer to the pack.
Right behind him in second is Joseph Carden (6,300,000), who likewise had a strong end to the day to land himself near the top of the leaderboard.

After the top two stacks, there is a jumble of stacks, all within just 500,000 chips of each other, fighting for the third-highest stack. Erlend Melsom just pipped that distinction with 4,980,000, edging out Nikolay Yosifov Uri Reichenstein , David Stamm and Maxx Coleman.
During the day's action, some of the notables who fell by the wayside include Martin Zamani (126th), Ben Keeline (45th), Punnat Punsri (36th) and Sami Bechahed (29th).
The day finally came to a close after 12 hours and the final elimination of the night ended up being David Kaufmann, who went out in 14th place.
Action will resume on June 21 at 12 p.m. in Level 28 with blinds at 60,000/120,000 with a 120,000 big blind ante.
PokerNews will be there to provide all of the updates once again.

Play has ended for the night, and the 13 remaining players have bagged up, and will return tomorrow at 12 p.m. for Day 3.
Action folded to Erlend Melson in the hijack, who raised to 200,000. Ivan Ruban then three-bet to 1,010,000, leaving 100,000 chips behind. When it got to the small blind Nikolay Yosifov, he four-bet all in. The big blind and Melson folded, and Ruban put in his last 100,000.
Ivan Ruban: A♠Q♠
Nikolay Yosifov: A♦K♦
Ruban was dominated, would need to improve to keep his tournament life alive. The 7♥2♥3♥ flop was no help, but the Q♣ on the turn flipped the switch, and it was Yosifov looking for one of three outs, with only one card to come. But the river was the 4♥ to secure Ruban the double up.

David Stamm: K♥K♣
