Day 2 of the 2016 Seneca Fall Poker Classic Main Event Starts Now!
After two starting flights drew 300 entries and reentries in the $1,000 buy-in 2016 Seneca Fall Poker Classic Main Event, just 57 players remain heading into Day 2 at 11 a.m. local time Sunday.
The money starts at 27 with a min-cash worth $2,013. Once the bubble pops they will vie for seats at Monday's final table where a $64,882 top prize, Seneca Niagara poker glory and a spot on the cover of CardPlayer Magazine awaits the winner.
The levels increase to 50 minutes today as the decisions get tougher and the tension mounts on the hotel balcony at the Seneca Niagara Resort & Casino in Niagara Falls, New York.
Two local stars who are no strangers to big leads in big events at Seneca Niagara are ahead of the pack right now and looking to etch their names in Seneca Poker history. Jefferey Hobrecker has a few thousand chip lead over Alex Visbisky and they are the only two over the 400,000-chip mark.
Defending champ Kurtis Boutelle remains in contention, sitting in the top ten in chips right now, and we should also mention habitual final table finisher Dan Wagner, who appears to win more money than anybody else here at Seneca Niagara, without ever winning. He's coming in third in chips behind Hobrecker and Visbisky, and is the best bet to have a good time win or lose.
There's also a host of poker talent from near and far still in the hunt and with blinds beginning at 2,000/4,000 with a 500 ante, and an average stack of 157,895, anything can happen.
Sit back and enjoy as PokerNews presents live updates from the scene throughout the day, from the call to shuffle up and deal until a final table is set.
