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

A scan of the field during the break turned up four players with at least 300K, creating an unofficial leaderboard:

1.  Zach Eichenbaum  –  542,000  (136 bb)
T-2.  Jimmy Corrales  –  317,000  (79 bb)
T-2.  Aaron Massey  –  317,000  (79 bb)
4.  Bret Beebe  –  307,000  (77 bb)

With about 90 players remaining from a Flight A field of 580, the average chip stack is about 129,000 (32 big blinds). Action will continue today until there are 73 players remaining, and the survivors will finish in the money and advance to Day 2, which begins Sunday at 1:00 pm.
