Day 2 Set To Go!
The 2015 Western New York Poker Challenge Event 5: $25,000 Guaranteed $50 No-Limit Hold'em will play down
to a winner today.
Over six Day 1 starting flights the event drew a huge 1,026 entries and re-entries, absolutely smashing the $25,000 guarantee.
Now, just 119 remain in the hunt for the title.
When play resumes at 12 p.m. local time they will all be looking up at Shayne Shackelford, who built a massive 520,000-chip stack on Day 1d.
No other player will come in with more than 200,000, although Day 1f leader Kyle Badger is close on 199,300.
