2013 World Poker Tour Venice Grand Prix Day 2: Ludovic Lacay Leads

The 2013 World Poker Tour Venice Grand Prix Day 2 had Ludovic Lacay the chip leader. 

While not necessarily a familiar name to many in the poker community, the French pro has won just shy of $3 million in live tournaments to date. 

His most recent big pay day was in October at the PokerStars.com EPT San Remo Main Event, which he won.  His reward was a cool $1 million and some change.

The winner of the Venice Grand Prix will walk away with $180,097.

Big name pro Mike Sexton was among the chip leaders Wednesday.
