Seminole Hard Rock Poker Open Championship (Freeze-Out)
Level 13: 1,500/3,000/500 Ante

Once players cleared the room on break, we found the biggest stack did not belong to one of those mentioned earlier. Couden and Dobrovolskiy are still up there but Neil Blumenfield is the first break leader.

Blumenfield began the day with an under-average 73,000 but has since run it up to 387,000 in two hours. Other names climbing over 200,000 are Paul Volpe, Dan Colman, Harry Cullen, Sorel Mizzi, Ari Engel, and Ryan Rivers dropping from this starting second position.
