Dia 2 Começado
Complete Day 2 chip counts can be found here:
The two starting flights of the $1,500 + $150 Millionaire Maker Event #8 at the World Series Of Poker 2014 exceeded all expectations and a staggering 7,977 entries (including re-entries) generated a total prize pool of $10,768,950. Only 1,469 of those hopefuls bagged up chips after nine levels each were played and come back today at 2 p.m. when the action restarts in level ten at blinds 400-800 / ante 100. The top 819 spots will get paid at least $2,692 but everyone is eying the massive first-place payout of $1,319,587.
Chip leader going into Day 2 is Kyle Ho with 140,500, who edged out Andrew Seidman by less than 3,000 chips. Big names with decent stacks include the likes of Trevor Pope (85,000), Julian Thomas (76,700), Tony Gregg (64,400), Matt Glantz (60,000), Kyle Julius (59,300) and John Racener (56,200). The second out of three scheduled days is supposed to play ten levels of one hour each with a 60 minute dinner break after level six. However, it is unlikely that we will get down to a winner by tomorrow and thus a fourth day may be necessary to determine the next millionaire.
There were a total of 7,977 entries creating a prize pool of $10,768,950. First place will become a millionaire taking home $1,319,587 and the top 12 will all hit a six-figure payday. 819 will make the money with a minimum cash being worth $2,692. Full payouts are below:

David "Doc" Sands opened the action to 1,800 first to act from middle position. He was re-raised by the player in the small blind to 4,700. Sand thought for about 15 seconds before announcing that he was all in and his opponent quickly folded. Sands is joined by two tough players at his table, Mike Sexton and Jonathan Tamayo.
