Event #39: $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em Shootout resumes at 12 noon today, with 100 players returning to 10 tables. Each of those 100 was the last person standing on his or her respective table yesterday, and it will be the aim of all of them to repeat that feat again today. At the end of today, there will be 10 winners, one from each table, who will go through to the final table tomorrow.

Day 1 attracted 908 runners who took seats across 100 tables. A $1,225,800 prize pool was generated and first place will collect $236,498. Everyone starting Day 2 has already secured at least $5,227, but that prize money will increase again for the 10 left standing at the end of play. There will be at least $15,180 in the bag for all those who make it through to Day 3.

There are several well-known names still in contention. These include reigning WSOP Main Event Champion Scott Blumstein who will be sharing table space with two-time bracelet winner Steven Wolansky and one-time bracelet winner Artur Rudziankov. Last year's runner-up in this event, Thomas Boivin, has Russell Thomas, Conor Drinan, and Alexandru Masek keeping him company at his table.

Multiple-bracelet winner Phil Hellmuth will be trying to beat the other players on his table like Thomas Taylor, Alexander Lakhov, and Rep Porter. Meanwhile 888Poker Ambassador and 2014 Main Event Champion Martin Jacobson will have bracelet winners Philip Tom and Justin Liberto, Shannon Shorr, and Tim Burt to contend with at his table.

Make sure to follow all of the updates as the PokerNews live reporting team will be on the floor to bring you all the winners of each table and the action that comes with it.

Table #401: Scott Blumstein raised to 1,500 from the cutoff and Royce Matheson was up next to act on the button. Matheson three-bet to 4,600. The blinds folded and Blumstein called.

The flop came {k-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{4-Spades}, Blumstein check-called the 4,000 bet of Matheson.

They both checked through the {8-Diamonds} on the turn to the {q-Hearts} on the river. Blumstein decided to bet 12,000. Matheson went through all the options in his head, confirmed the bet amount and cut out calling chips. He looked at the board again and then called.

Blumstein defeatedly showed {7-Hearts}{6-Hearts} for a failed bluff and mucked. Matheson showed {q-Clubs}{10-Clubs} for the rivered two pair of queens and fours and took the pot.

Phil Hellmuth has gotten off to a good start for Day 2 on Table #410. He just won a pot versus James Worth and it now puts him ahead in chips on his table.

With the board showing {6-Spades}{2-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{9-Hearts} and over 20,000 in the middle already, Worth had checked and Hellmuth made a bet of 8,000. It priced Worth out and Hellmuth took it down.

Level 15 : 300/600, 100 ante

All the community cards were out and the board read {a-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{9-Spades}{k-Clubs}{8-Hearts}, over on Table #411.

Richard Alati was first to act and he checked. Anthony Burch-Castro made it 12,000 to see his cards and after a minute or so in the tank, Alati made a hesitant call.

Burch-Castro turned over {k-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} for two pair and it was good, with Alati sending his cards into the muck.

On Table #418, Dylan Linde raised to 1,500 from mid-position and was called by Jacobo Fernandez in the hijack, Martin Stoyanov on the button, and Timothy McReynolds in the big blind.

The flop came {2-Clubs}{9-Spades}{6-Spades}, and both McReynolds and Linde checked. Fernandez bet 2,200 and Stoyanov called. McReynolds folded and Linde raised to 8,500. Fernandez folded and Stoyanov checked how much the second call would cost him. The dealer confirmed the amount and Stoyanov called.

The turn brought them the {5-Hearts}, Linde calmly continued with another bet, now for 17,500. Stoyanov once again asked for a confirmation. He considered it for a few minutes but then folded.
