The 2021 WSOP Main Event champion Koray Aldemir (1,245,000) is lurking just outside the top ten and looking to become the latest in a long line of Main Event champions who have added to their bracelet collection since capturing poker's biggest prize.
Joining Aldemir on Day 2 are stars such as Nick Guagenti (1,000,000), Justin Pechie (710,000), Lexy Gavin (670,000), and John Gorsuch (645,000).
During Level 18, the clock was paused with 14 minutes remaining and the action played out hand-for-hand until the money bubble burst. Once it popped, the subsequent eliminations came quickly, and more than 100 players busted within the next level.
Some of the notable entrants who fell before the day's end include Jessica Teusl, who left the tournament after Terry Fan cracked her queens; seven-time World Series of Poker Circuit ring winner Pamela Belote, Daniel Dealmeida, Nikki Limo and $25K Fantasy Draft players Ryan Riess and Scott Seiver.
All 283 players that made Day 2 will battle it out for the $289,323 top prize and a WSOP bracelet. Day 2 starts with the remaining 10 minutes of Level 22 with blinds of 10,000/25,000 and a 25,000 big blind ante. The cards are back in the air from 11 a.m. local time on June 27, so join us as the PokerNews team continues following this exciting event until a winner is crowned.

Level: 22
Blinds: 10,000/25,000
Ante: 25,000
Mrityunjay Jha moved all in for around 55,000 from an early position and got a re-jam from the cutoff. The button also made the call and the players went three ways to the board.
Mrityunjay Jha: 5♥6♥
Button: A♦7♦
Cutoff: AxKx
The 8x9x7x4xQx runout gave Jha the straight and secured him the triple up, and the cutoff took the side pot with a pair of sevens.
In the next hand Jha moved all in again from under the gun, and all players folded, allowing him to add the blinds to his stack.

After some back-and-forth betting preflop, Ben Miller and another player got all their chips into the middle, with Miller covering.
Opponent: 5♠5♣
Ben Miller: J♥J♦
Miller was well ahead on the flop 10♦3♦7♦ his superior pair and flush draw, but the turn 5♥ gave his oppoennt the lead with a set of fives. Unfortunately for her though, the river smacked down the J♠ to give Miller a bigger set to scoop the pot and sent her to the rail in dramatic fashion.

Jean Osta was all in against an opponent with the cards already face up.
Opponent: AxAx
Jean Osta: KxJx
Osta needed to hit and the QxJx2x flop got her closer to cracking the aces.
The Jx turn brought in trips for Osta, and the brick river sealed the near double for Osta, as she knocked her opponent out of the tournament.
