2010 World Series of Poker
Event #40: $2,500 Seven Card Razz

Day 2 completed

After a long day on the felt, Event #40: $2,500 Seven Card Razz has come to an end.

136 players returned today for day two action with their goal of sneaking into the money and taking home a guaranteed $4,550 in prizemoney at the forefront of their focus. Unfortunately many fell short of this as Kirk Morrison, Erick Lindgren, Justin Bonomo, Howard Lederer, Ted Forrest and Archie Karas were just a few that exited shy of the top forty.

Yevgeniy Timoshenko (38th), Greg Raymer (37th), Shawn Sheikhan (35th), Tommy Vedes (32nd), Daniel Negreanu (29th), Joe Hachem (22nd), David Chiu (20th) and Dario Minieri (19th) all fell late in the night as we were left with a final fifteen.

Melville Lewis will be carrying the honor of being the overnight chip leader with an amassed 504,000 in chips. Snapping at his heels are Mikko Pispala (458,000), Stuart Rutter (295,000) and Maxwell Troy (258,000).
