$560 Deeper Stack No Limit Hold’em
Level 16: 2,500/5,000/500 Ante
Players Remaining: 103/437
It’s noon local time, cards are in the air and registration is officially closed in the $560 Deeper Stack tournament. As of last night, the field stood at 437 entries accumulating a prize pool of $218,500. Both those numbers are expected to have ticked up overnight as players were able to enter until just moments ago.
Leading the 103 players who bagged Flight A and B is Daren Stabinski. Stabinski, who plays out of Miami and owns nearly $450,000 in reported tournament earnings, sits on a stack of 466,000. Along with Marcus Stein (406,000), Stabinski is one of just two players over the 400,000 mark.
