If you’re wondering who’s reigning supreme in WSOP bracelet events that are yet to reach their conclusion, you’ve come to the right place. Who’s running Scott Seiver closest in the Seven Card Stud? Which huge name has a top 10 double stack pile of chips? And which living legend is crushing Pot Limit Omaha 30 years after playing Johnny Chan for the Main Event title? Read on and find out!
SEIVER OUT IN FRONT BUT LEGENDS CHASE HIS SHADOW
Scott Seiver has the biggest chip stack in the Seven Card Stud Championship. The $10,000-entry event has attracted some of the best names in the poker world, including 36 of the 77 entries who will return today for Day 2. It was Scott Seiver with 329,000 who ended up as chip leader, and he was followed by two men who have already won a 2019 WSOP bracelet in Scott Clements (290,000) and Greg Mueller (263,000). Along with players such as six-time WSOP bracelet winner Daniel Negreanu (154,000 ), other players to survive the cut included a player fresh from the Dealer’s Choice final in Michael McKenna (245,500) as well as five-time WSOP bracelet winner Michael Mizrachi (234,000) and Max Pescatori (195,500).

Joseph Cheong was among the players who survived Day 3 of the $1,000-entry Double Stack WSOP event, with the ebullient poker player bagging up 11,175,000 on the day. He wasn’t the only player to rack up a decent tally, with the field of 381 players cut to just 40 by close of play. Zinan Xu has the overnight lead with 16,775,000 chips but others bagged well too, with Ido Ashkenazi (13,700,000), Edgardo Rosario (13,100,000), Matthew Wantman (13,075,000) and Ryan Jaconetti (12,475,000) all going through to the penultimate day.
DEEPSTACK DRAMA AS FEIZ LEADS BUT IVEY BUSTS
Hamid Feiz was the leader of the pack in the $800 Deepstack event, with 2,808 entries cut down to 671 as the day kicked off, and only 26 players still in seats when the bell tolled for the close of play. Phil Ivey was not amongst their number after he was flipped out of the running by Christopher Csik. Ivey three-bet shoved all-in and Csik ended up calling the clock on himself to push himself to the right decision as he won the flip that would end the poker legend’s tournament.
With a top prize of $297,537 up for grabs, Hamid Feiz is the chip leader with 12 million in chips, but he’s followed by some top talent, with Nick Jivkov (9,625,000) and Josh Boulton (8,000,000) closest to chasing him down.

Others will be full of hope to beat him to the top prize, with Ken Gurley (265,800) and Dennis Owen (247,000) following closely. Lorna Cerjance (234,200) and Mary Haught (234,000) also follow in their footsteps, while legends of the game who are also still involved include Barry Schulman (179,900), ‘Captain’ Tom Franklin (138,800), T.J.
