Welcome to Day 2 of Event #4: $500 5-Card PLO High here at the luxurious MGM National Harbor. Last night saw the event play down to just five players with Roy Kim leading the charge after amassing 2,335,000 in chips, which represents just under half the total amount of chips in play. The only other player over a million is Shouyi Gao, who managed to bag 1,070,000 last night.

Kim and Gao appear to be the most experienced players going into Day 2 with more than $100,000 in live-tournament earnings each according to The Hendon Mob.
