Ralph Kellagher (pictured) looks to ride his chip lead to the finish in the six max event, but will have to fend off three-time gold ring winner, Scott Stewart, and company.
Stateline, Nev. (November 3, 2015) -- Tuesday at Harveys Lake Tahoe will feature the six max final table. It is a tough final table, as all six max final tables are, that includes three-time gold ring winner Scott Stewart. Stewart has been on a heater on the Circuit the past year, picking up three gold rings. He has won a gold ring at Harrah's California, Horseshoe Tunica and The Bicycle Casino all since last December. He now will look to add a Harveys Lake Tahoe ring to his collection.
If Stewart wants the ring he will have to catch the chip leader, Ralph Kellagher. Kellagher has been in this position before. In 2013, Kellagher finished runner up in the six max event here at Harveys Lake Tahoe. He will be looking to improve on his runner-up finish to take down his first career WSOP Circuit gold ring. Day 2 action begins today at 2 p.m.
Here is a look at the chip counts heading into Day 2:
Seat 1: Ralph Kellagher - 695,000
Seat 2: Spencer Bennett - 236,000
Seat 3: Scott Stewart - 310,000
Seat 4: Craig Gold - 127,000
Seat 5: Dan Stir - 413,000
