Join us today at 1:30 pm for an extended final in Event #2, $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em. Original plans to play all the way down to the final nine had to be scrapped as 6am approached and 18 players remained in the hunt, and a large majority of the surviving players voted to adjourn and return today.

Aaron Coulthard, with 1,327,000 in chips, holds the lead entering the final day's play, with Theo Tran, James Akenhead and Matthew Kearney each also above the million-chip mark.
