There will be 521 players returning to the felt and one of the contenders at the top of the leaderboard is partypoker sponsored pro, Johnny Lodden.
The Norwegian poker pro bagged a top five chip stack with an impressive 5,625,000. Lodden might not be playing as much tournament poker as he once did, but he is always a recognizable face at these partypoker LIVE festivals.

The action is slated to resume at 12:00 P.M. local time with a total of 521 players returning from the three Day 1 flights. Late registration will remain open for another 4 levels. A whopping $5,000,000 prizepool is guaranteed for this event and the final numbers with payouts will be posted when they become available. The blind levels will be increased to 75 minutes today, starting at 10,000/20,000 with a 20,000 button ante. A total of seven levels are tap for today's schedule, at which point players will bag and tag to return on Day 3.
