Hartshorn comes into Level 23 with 1.8M and finds himself in 4th place. Just over one year ago, Hartshorn took outright 1st in the 300 Main Event for $98,308 at Big Stax XVIII. That win was just a precursor to his career best score in November 2016. He won the a Borgata Main Event earning $302,978 and two major titles in under two months bringing his career earnings to ~$603k. Hartshorn finds himself once again in the thick of things at Parx and poses a major threat now that he has found some chips.
Nerenberg is the defending 500 Main Event champion after winning this event just two months ago. He took the lion’s share of a three-way chop worth $94,467, his career best score. He aims to join Joe Palma and become the 2nd player to win an event in back to back series and has a good shot to do so as he comes into Level 23 in 6th place with ~1.7M.
