Matt Grapenthien Rocking the Big Stack and All That Razz in Day 2 of Event #69
Matt Grapenthien leads the remaining 102 players into Day 2 of Event #69: $1,500 Razz. Grapenthien already has one WSOP gold bracelet from the 2014 $10,000 Seven Card Stud Championship. He is joined by a pretty strong field with the likes of 14-time WSOP bracelet winner Phil Hellmuth (45,900), Mike "The Mouth" Matusow (23,200), Jason Mercier (31,200), Tom Schneider (46,500), and Benny Glaser (61,000).
There are a ton of great players returning, we could list plenty more, but if players like Brandon Shack-Harris (23,100) are being left off the list, then you know this field is stacked.
James Obst (30,700) is still in the mix and has a chance for a Glaser-esque sweep, having already won the $10,000 Razz Championship. Glaser swept the $1,500 and $10,000 Omaha Eight or Better events last year.
It should be an interesting Day 2 and it all kicks off at 2 p.m. today. Stay up to date with all the action from Event #69 and all of the eight events happening today at the 2017 Wolrd Series of Poker, right here on PokerNews.com.
