Level 4: 200/300 with a 300 ante
Day 1C Entries:  76

It was a slow first few levels. It seemed that way when we could not find a single double stack from the starting 50K. Michael Tait leads the field with 87,400 followed by Kenna James with 82,100 and Todd Rosenthal with 81,000.

We expect the chips to move a lot more over the next three levels.
