Two levels are in the bag on Day 2 of Event 56 and the 239 remaining players are on their first break of the day. Only 14 players are left to be eliminated before the field hits the money and the bubble should burst during the next level. The min-cash for this event is $3,840 but it’s difficult for any player to look at the $487,952 first place prize and not dream just a little bit bigger.

Once the field returns from their brief recess, the Venetian Poker Room blog will return with a look at the updated tournament leaderboard.
