Defending Champion Kwon Through to Day 2; Rodawig Leads $1,500 Razz
Welcome to Day 2 of Event #54: $1,500 Razz where a further ten levels are scheduled to be played. Some 127 players remain from a starting field of 363 and defending champion Jay Kwon is among them, sitting with over the average chip stack at the start of the day.
Kwon won his first bracelet and $125,431 in this event last year. With three WSOP cashes - all of which coming in Razz - it's safe to assume that Kwon will be a force to be reckoned with at the tables once play gets underway at 2 p.m.
Leading the 127 is Eric Rodawig. A bracelet-winner, just like Kwon, Rodawig won his back in 2011 when he took down the $10,000 Stud Hi-Lo 8 or Better Championship for $442,183.
Other bracelet winners through to Day 2 include Scott Clements, John Cernuto, Jennifer Tilly, Naoya Kihara, Michael Gathy, Anson Tsang, Steven Albini, Gary Benson, Ryan Riess, Owais Ahmed, Carol Fuchs and 2019 bracelet-winner Robert Campbell.
