![[user80015]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
Welcome back to the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino and the 2014 World Series of Poker for Day 2 of Event #42: $5,000 Six-Handed Pot-Limit Omaha!
Yesterday saw 452 players take to the felt to create a $2,124,400 prizepool that would leave $541,747 reserved for the victor after crushing the mark this event set last year when Steve Gross topped a 400-player field. Gross would unfortunately find himself on the rail along with second place finisher Salman Behbehani before the likes of Philipp Gruissem, Sammy Farha, Paul Volpe, Antonio Esfandiari, Noach Schwartz, Stephen Chidwick and Greg Merson would also find themselves watching from behind the rail.
Once the call to bag and tag was made, 96 players would survive as Belgium's Davidi Kitai bagged an impressive 308,300 to be in line to make a run at his fourth WSOP gold bracelet and second for the series. Nipping at Kitai's heels include Brandon Crawford (202,900), Kory Kilpatrick (202,000) and Brant Hale (189,200).
Mike Gorodinsky, Scott Bohlman, Brian Rast, Mike Watson, Michael Mizrachi, Scotty Nguyen, David "Bakes" Baker and Ashton Griffin all posses six-figure chip stacks while a plethora of notables still remain as they firstly eye the money-paying top 48 before making a run at that elusive WSOP final table.
The PokerNews Live Reporting Team will be providing extensive live coverage once play commences at 1:00 p.m. (PDT) as we look to write the victory path of the future Event #42 Champion.
