Ryan McKnight came into Day 2 with 237k but may have had the biggest upswing over the first two hours. He lands in 4th place after the break with 840k, slightly over 100 big blinds. McKnight was busy during the beginning of this series but has shown up just in time to take a run at the 500. His previous best is a 7th place finish in the 300 Main Event for just over $11k and McKnight remains a consistent performer at the Big Stax series.
Dan Sweeney takes the last spot in the Top 5 with 790k. Sweeney came in with 480k and has slightly improved that stack since the beginning of play. He had a really close call back in February by falling just short of a Final Table in the 300 Main Event. Sweeney exited in 14th for $4,401, his best finish in a Big Stax Main Event. The local player has racked up $38k in career earnings and could add a huge chunk to that with another deep run here at Parx.
