In addition to the five-figure payday, the winner of the event pockets a $1,650 Deep Stack Event #4 seat added courtesy of the Seminole Hard Rock. Additionally, each of the 10 unofficial final tablists head home with a $560 Deep Stack Event #3 seat.

Day 2 Underway; Table 37 Stacked to Start

May 22, 2016 @ 12:01PM by Seminole Hard Rock Poker

$350 No Limit Hold’em Re-Entry ($150,000 Guaranteed)
Level 16: 2,500/5,000/500 Ante
Players Remaining: 174/1,054

It’s noon in South Florida and Day 2 of Event 1 of the Seminole Hard Rock Deep Stack Series is off and running. The $150,000 guarantee was bested during Friday’s Flight B and Saturday’s Flight C more than doubled it as the combined prize pool crossed the $300,000 mark. With late registration available until just moments ago, the final prize pool isn’t verified as of yet, but will be posted as soon as it’s available. As is, 174 of 1,054 starters remain.

The empty chair of chip leader Hector Navas

Leading the way to start is Flight A’s Hector Navas. Navas, who’s yet to show for the restart, burst into the lead bagging a 709,000-chip stack right away and is the only player over the 700,000 mark. Joining him at the top of the counts and at his Day 2 table are second and third in chips David Albertson (604,000) and Ismael Patel (585,500). The trio tops the counts and finds themselves facing off against one another at Table 37.

Others drawing live for a payday in the event include Michael Newman (424,500), Lou Stadler (400,500) and David “Chino” Rheem (333,500).

The tournament’s complete prize pool will be posted shortly. From there, we’ll provide another update after bubble bursts.

Good luck, players!
