Day 2 will conclude when only five players remain and they will return to the final table on Thursday, June 16th at a time yet to be determined.
Stephen Song starts the day as chip leader after amassing an incredible 1,404,000 chips. Three other players will start the day with a seven-figure stack. Pedro Arroyos (1,365,000), William Kopp (1,163,000) and Chino Rheem (1,100,000).
