Bell On Top With 27 Left
The World Series of Poker Circuit Northeast Regional Championship resumed on Monday with 93 players remaining from the starting field of 136 to battle it out on Day 2. Seven levels and change were played and when it all said and done, only 27 were left in what was an action-packed day of poker. Ending the day at the top of the counts was Chris Bell with 434,500.
Bell started the day with 56,850, but scored knockout after knockout to vault to the top of the counts. Among those that had their bell rung were Anthony Newman, Dwyte Pilgrim, Brent Hanks, John Cernuto, and Chris Reslock. Hot on his heels, though, is Seth Fischer with 386,700. Also still in is David Sands, already with one WSOP-C Regional Championship final table under his belt.
Play resumes at 12pm local time Tuesday and will continue until the final table of nine is set. Until then, good night from Atlantic City!
