The Second Day of the WPT Championship

On April 22nd, 2008, the second day of the world poker tour Championship saw development on the ongoing action from the first day of the championship. Deep beginning stacks limited the numbers of players that have been eliminated to just 121 players, while around 233 players were eliminated from the second day of the event.

Each poker table contains at least five poker players with some featuring as many as eight professional poker players. Some of the poker players that busted during the second day were Phil Hellmuth, Joe Hachem, Chris Ferguson, Michael Mizrachi and Paul Wasicka.
