Am gestrigen Sonntag stand Tag 2 des Main Events der WPT LA Poker Classic auf dem Programm. Nach fünf gespielten Leveln sollten noch 172 von ehemals 534 Startern übrig bleiben. Diese werden erneut angeführt von Scott Blackmann, der bereits als Chipleader in den Tag gestartet war. Der Deutsche Bastian Fischer befindet sich vor Beginn von Tag 3 auf Rang Sieben im Chipcount und hat damit gute Chancen auf einen Deep Run.
Bis zum Ende von Level Sieben hatten die Spieler noch die Möglichkeit zu einer Late Registration. Diese nahmen dann auch einige war, wodurch die Teilnehmerzahl auf 534 stieg. Damit waren es also etwas mehr Spieler als im letzten Jahr. Insgesamt geht es um einen Preispool von $5,126,400, wobei allein der Sieger mit satten $1,015,460 nach Hause gehen wird.
Die beiden bekanntesten Namen unter den Teilnehmern, Phil Hellmuth und Phil Ivey haben es leider nicht durch den Tag geschafft sondern sind frühzeitig ausgeschieden, während Daniel Negreanu heute an Tag 3 wiederkommen wird. Weitere bekannte Gesichter unter den Bustouts waren beispielsweise Melanie Weisner, Trevor Pope, Vanessa Selbst, Shannon Shorr, Gavin Griffin, Daniel Alaei, Jonathan Little, Jean Robert-Bellande, Jason Koon, Mike Matusow und Jeff Gross.
