$5,300 SHRPO Championship
$3,000,000 Guaranteed | Structure
Level 9:  1,000/1,500 with a 1,500 ante
Day 1B Entries:  527

The players returned from break to begin Level 9, with increased blinds of 1,000-1,500 and a 1,500 ante.

Registration is now closed, and the tournament clock shows an unofficial Day 1B field of 527, which means the prizepool would be worth more than $5.1 million. The official payouts should be posted later tonight.

A scan of the field during the break turned up four players with at least 250K, plus one more knocking on the door to create an unofficial leaderboard:

1.  Frank Lagodich  –  312,000  (208 bb)
2.  Paul Balzano  –  293,000  (195 bb)
3.  Christian Harder  –  272,000  (181 bb)
4.  Devin Ullman  –  250,000  (167 bb)
5.  Colby Covington  –  244,500  (163 bb)

Action will continue tonight until the end of Level 10, around 11:15 pm.
