WSOPC Event #13: $1,700 MAIN EVENT

 

Dann Turner has command of the Main Event final table

The returning field of 48 sped to a final table in under six hours, but once they got to the business end of things, the final ten were meticulous in trimming ten to six. After a few more levels of play, just six indeed remain to play for the WSOP Circuit Main Event title at Harvey’s Lake Tahoe.

When they come back on Monday with 41:41 remaining in Level 26, it will be Dann Turner with a sizeable chip lead (6,250,000), holding more than double his closest competitor, James Czarnecki (2,925,000).

Turner holds a WSOP bracelet and Circuit ring to his name, but both have come online. Among his illustrious career, a live WSOP win has eluded Turner, but he’ll have arguably his best shot Monday.

The five players chasing Turner are all bunched quite closely together when play resumes.

Event #13: $1,700 Main Event end of Day 2 chip counts:

• Dann Turner - 6,250,000
• James Czarnecki - 2,925,000
• Evan Sandberg - 2,510,000
• Brett Murray - 2,375,000
• Michael Pearson - 1,855,000
• Travis Stenerson - 1,685,000

The remaining six have each clinched at least $21,001, but they’re just a few more eliminations away from the $133,837 first prize along with the prestigious WSOP Circuit ring and entry into the 2025 WSOP Tournament of Champions.

Here’s a look at the remaining payouts:

• 1st: 133,837
• 2nd: $87,977
• 3rd: $59,232
• 4th: $40,871
• 5th: $28,921
• 6th: $21,001

Join us Monday on PokerOrg Instant LIVE at noon PT for the exciting conclusion to the Harvey’s Lake Tahoe WSOP Circuit Main Event.

The Harvey's Lake Tahoe Main Event champions ring is just a day away for one of 48 players left

Two days of WSOP Circuit hopefuls have been trimmed to the final 48, who return to the Harvey’s Lake Tahoe tournament area at noon to play down to the final table.

A pair of dominant performances from Day 1B have set Travis Stenerson and David Lucchesi up for deep runs on Sunday, potentially all the way to a WSOP Circuit ring.

Can Day 1A chip leader Dan Casetta continue his redemption story after double heartbreak last year in this room?

Or could one of the former champions or other big names rise from the pack to claim the title?

There’s no shortage of great stories to follow on Sunday as they race toward the $133,837 first prize.

The complete payouts are available here, but for those that make the final table today, this is what awaits them:
