There has been plenty of chip movement here in the early stages of Day 2 of the WSOP HORSE Championship. James Mackey who started the day with the chip lead has dropped back into the middle of the pack with slightly more than his starting stack at 135,000.

In the meantime some new faces have moved to the forefront while a few leaders held their top spots.

Online poker phenom Tom Dwan, a.k.a Durrr, currently has the lead with 247,000. This is Dwan’s first year playing at the WSOP as he’s only 21. Big things are expected of him and it’s already looking like he won’t disappoint.

While railbirding Dwan he overhead Ralph Perry, who is sitting at his table, ask him where he learned to play all of the HORSE games seeing as he was only 21. Dwan just smiled and mumbled something about playing all over the place online. We had to bite our tongues to stop from shouting, “They are these Intertubes where you can do all sorts of cool stuff like surf porn and play poker!”

Abraham Mosseri is currently in second place with 246,000, Bill Chen is third with 236,000, Farzad Bonyadi is fourth with 230,000 and Pat Pezzin is fifth with 222,000.

Poker pro Patrick Antonius has managed to build on the sizable stack that he began the day with and is now sitting in sixth place with 216,000.

French poker hottie Isabelle Mercier is close behind Antonius with 210,000. For the picture, you are welcome.
