Deeb, Kade Among Players Returning for Day 5 in Wynn Millions Main Event
Day 5 of the 2022 Wynn Millions Main Event is about to get underway with only 16 players remaining. The fifth day of the $10,000-buy-in tournament kicks off at noon local time and will play down to a final table.
Isaac Kempton had a hot Day 4 that left him with the chip lead with a stack of 5,615,000, ahead of fellow big stacks Ian Matakis (5,030,000), Michael Stembera (4,225,000) and Tony Sinishtaj (4,065,000).
Other notables who are returning for Day 5 action include 2021 GPI Breakout Player nominee Vanessa Kade and five-time World Series of Poker bracelet winner Shaun Deeb, who respectively sit with 3,575,000 and 2,495,000.
Defending champion Andrew Moreno won't be in the field as his deep run was cut short on Day 4 when he got his kings cracked to go out in 23rd place.
Like Day 2, 3 and 4, Day 5 will play for 90-minute levels with a 10-minute break at the end of each level.
The eventual winner of the Wynn Millions Main Event, which attracted 1,075 runners to generate $10,105,000 in prize money, will earn the lion's share of that for a seven-figure score worth $1,655,952.
