The players return from break to begin Level 15, with increased blinds of 2,000-4,000 and a big blind ante of 4,000.

A scan of the field during the break turned up four players with at least 350K, creating an unofficial leaderboard:

1.  Steve Veneziano  –  413,000  (103 bb)
2.  Emmanuel Dimaano, Jr.  –  384,000  (96 bb)
3.  Scott Blackman  –  363,000  (91 bb)
4.  James Calderaro  –  358,000  (90 bb)

With about 93 players remaining from a Flight C field of 628, the average chip stack is about 135,000 (34 big blinds). Action will continue today until there are 79 players remaining, and the survivors will finish in the money and advance to Day 2, which begins Sunday at 1:00 pm.

Note:  Players must bag chips at the end of their starting flight to finish in the money.
