Event 17 (Day 2): Back From Dinner

Level 16 (Blinds 1,500/3,000/400)
Total Entries: 178
Players Remaining: 27

As players finish filing back into the poker room, they are sitting down to Level 16 where the big blind will be 3,000 chips. As such, the average stack in the room still has 66 big blinds remaining.

John Lakatosh (550,000; Table 31), Christian Harder (400,000; Table 29) and Ulises Roman (360,000; Table 30) have the biggest stacks in the room, but anything can happen over the course of the next few hours.

Play will conclude tonight when only 18 players remain. Coincidentally enough, 18 is also the number of players who will get paid in this tournament. Thus, the players who survive tonight are the ones guaranteed some cash tomorrow.
