WSOP 2015 Main Event - Pierre Neuville in the lead after Day 5

On Sunday 237 players returned to the Rio Hotel and Casino for Day 5 of the World Series of Poker Main Event and the field was stacked with the biggest names of the game. The chipleader was Joe McKeehen and Daniel Negreanu, Brian Hastings, John Racener, Justin Bonomo, Jake Cody and Antonio Esfandiari were all still in the hunt for the $7,680,021 first place prize. By the end of the day only 69 players remained, the biggest stack belongs to Belgian poker legend Pierre Neuville, but Brian Hastings, Anton Morgenstern, Daniel Negreanu, Mark Kroon, Toby Lewis and Fedor ''CrownUpGuy'' Holz also made it to Day 6.

Each of the 237 players who survived Day 4 were guaranteed a cash of at least $34,157 and many big names were eliminated early on including Men Nguyen, Vivek Rajkumar, Dan O'Brien and Elio Fox.

Other bustouts included Ryan D'Angelo, Matthias De Meulder, John Racener, 1993 WSOP Main Event champion Jim Bechtel (the only remaining champ in the field at the start of the day), Vitaly Lunkin, Farzad Bonyadi, Jake Cody and Brandon Adams.

There are several noteable players still in the field, Kelly Minkin is the last woman standing, Matt Jarvis is the last former November Niner in the field, Mark Kroon and Anton Morgenstern are trying to go deep again after their infamous blowups and Fedor ''CrownUpGuy'' Holz is trying to become the first ever live/online World Champion after winning the World Championship of Online Poker in 2014.
