If he were to win the One Drop, which pays $7,114,500, he'd move into third place on the all-time list. Smith already has over $49 million in live tournament cashes, according to The Hendon Mob.
When play resumes at the final table, everyone will be chasing Smith, who bagged the chip lead for the second straight day. He'd lose a chunk of his stack, but still remained at or near the top throughout most of the session. Dan Smith, who busted Ivey, came in with the chip lead. There's going to be a seven-figure money bubble on Wednesday at the final table of the Big One for One Drop, a $1 million buy-in World Poker Tour (WPT) event that is one day away from making one wealthy person much wealthier.Īlthough Phil Ivey didn't make it to Day 2 after busting late on Day 1, the 14 players who returned to Wynn Las Vegas for the second of three days of play were among the best in the world.
