Day 2 Completed
Day 2 of Event #47: $1,500 H.O.R.S.E. has come to an end here at the Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas with Yuri Dzivielevski leading the final 28 players after bagging up 2,020,00 in chips.
The Brazilian poker pro is the only player who bagged over two million in chips and is in pole position to add a third WSOP bracelet to his resume. Dzivielevski has over $5 million in career tournament earnings, including a second-place finish in the $50,000 Poker Player's Championship last year for his largest cash to date.
Also in contention is Gershon Distenfeld (1,300,000). The philanthropist poker player already has one WSOP bracelet to his name and has pledged to donate all of his winnings to charity, including 10% to The (CSOP).

Joshua Faris ended up bursting the money bubble after committing the last of his chips in Seven Card Stud and losing out to Sean Valentine's two pair.

Day 3 is set to begin at 1:00 p.m. local time on June 22 on Level 26, which features 20,000/40,000 blinds for limit games and a 10,000 bring-in with 10,000 antes and 40,000/80,000 limits for stud games. Levels will last 60 minutes each and play down until a winner is decided.

Popovych checked to Dzivielevski on fifth street and Dzivielevski bet, which again sent Popovych deep into the tank. Eventually, the clock was called on Popovych and he folded his hand as the tournament director approached counting to zero.
