Big name alert at EPT San Remo! The leaderboard reads as a who's who of poker.

We start with a former WSOP Main Event Champ. It's been quite a while since we've seen the name Joe Cada (pictured) in contention at a major event, yet, there he is, tenth in chips after Day 2.

Third place Kevin Vandersmissen is looking for his third PTPR Score of the season, while Carter Phillips, Fabrice Soulie and Xuan Liu are all in the Top 10.

Vanessa Selbst had a tough go of it near the end of the night. She lost a boatload of chips on one of the last hands of the night.
