Backed by a monster pot on the last hand of the night on Day 1, Lefrancois will begin Day 2 with 210,900. Lefrancois' closest competitor is WCC Event #9 winner, Francois Goulet with 148,700. World Series of Poker Main Event November Niner Marc-Etienne McLaughlin, World Poker Tour champion Chanracy Khun, and Samuel Chartier are also in the mix.
