Wilson Leads Final 31 After Day 2 in Tournament of Champions; Somerville Still in the Mix

Tyler Foran

Level 20 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Day 2 of Event #4: Tournament of Champions is in the books at the Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas, with only 31 players remaining of the 747 total entries. After a 12-hour day, it was America's Scott Wilson bagging an impressive chip lead with a total of 2,885,000 in chips.

After being chip leader multiple times throughout the day, it was Brent Gregory who bagged the second-largest stack with a total of 2,000,040. Dakota Britton is trailing in third with 1,400,000.

Vincent Moscati (1,120,000) and Katelin Koper (990,000) round out the top five on the leaderboard. Moscati almost busted during Level 14 when he found himself all-in with pocket tens against the superior jacks in the hand of Sergio Benso. However, a ten on the flop gifted Moscati a set, which held to keep his WSOP bracelet dreams alive.

Top 10 Chip Counts After Day Two

Rank	Player	Country	Chip Count	Big Blinds
1	Scott Wilson	United States	2,885,000	144
2	Brent Gregory	United States	2,000,040	100
3	Dakota Britton	United States	1,400,000	70
4	Vincent Moscati	United States	1,120,000	56
5	Katelin Koper	United States	990,000	50

7	Justin Hotte-Mckinnon	Canada	880,000	44
8	Patrick White	Ireland	870,000	44
9	Barry Schultz	United States	795,000	40
10	Wissam Gahshan	United States	780,000	39

Of the chasing pack, only Jason Somerville has won a WSOP bracelet before. Somerville triumphed in the $1,000 No-Limit Hold'em event back in 2011. Some may say that bracelet number two is long overdue; Somerville will likely agree with those sentiments. The popular streamer returns to the action in this event with a 405,000 stack, placing him 24th at the restart.

The returning players have each locked in at least $5,400 for their efforts, with the next pay jump happening when 26 players remain. Reaching the final table increases their take-home pay to $16,000, with the eventual champion clinching a $200,000 prize plus the all-important gold bracelet.

Day 3 begins at 12:00 p.m. on June 2, with play resuming at Level 21, where the blinds are 10,000/20,000 plus a 20,000 big blind ante. Play will continue until a champion is crowned. Who will that champion be? Stay tuned to PokerNews to find out!

Level 18 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Jason Somerville raised to 22,000 under the gun and Christopher Lawrence called next to act.

The dealer fanned a flop of K?Q?7? and Somerville continued for 25,000. Lawrence tossed in a call.

The 6? landed on the turn and Somerville continued with aggression, stacking up a bet of 75,000. Lawrence took a few moments and made the call.

The Q? river paired the board and brought in the flush but that didn't slow Somerville down as after about five seconds he announced all-in for roughly 189,000. Lawrence, who had him covered, went into the tank for about 30 seconds before letting it go.

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

With about 120,000 in the middle, the flop read 3?3?2?. Dakota Britton tossed out a bet of 55,000, forcing Zachary Zaret to quickly fold and the action was now on Jennifer Lin.

Lin looked at the clock as she seemingly had a decision and eventually pushed her entire stack of roughly 150,000 across the line. Britton instantly tossed his cards into the muck as the dealer shipped the pot to Lin on the bubble.

Level 14 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Vincent Moscati limped in the cutoff before Sergio Benso raised to 24,000 on the button. The blinds quickly folded and the action was back on Moscati who announced all-in. Benso went into the tank and for a count after about a minute. The dealer let him know it was 117,000 and he pushed a stack of 5,000 chips across the line to make the call.

Vincent Moscati: 10?10?
Sergio Benso: J?J?

Moscati looked to be in disgust as the hands were revealed, however, the 10?7?2? flop changed his mood, giving him top set. He was able to fade the two outs of his opponent as the board completed with the 4? on the turn and the 2? on the river.

Level 13 : Blinds 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante

Joseph Kuczewski raised to 8,000 on the button and was looked up by both Noah Sharp in the small blind and Rosalie Petit in the big blind.

The dealer spread a flop of 10?6?3?, Sharp quickly checked and Petit jammed her last 30,000 across the line. Kuczewski snap-mucked and Sharp made the call.

Rosalie Petit: 8?4?
Noah Sharp: 7?7?

Petit had flopped a flush draw, and the J? turn brought in the flush, sealing her double up as the 6? completed the board.

Michael Holtz started proceedings by raising to 4,500 in the hijack, called by the cutoff and Benjamin Wiora in the big blind.

Three players saw a flop of J?8?7?. Wiora's check allowed Holtz to continue to 7,000. The cutoff folded, opening the door for Wiora's check-raise to 22,000. After much deliberation, Holtz folded and conceded this pot.
