$1,100 Six-Max No Limit Hold’em (Single Re-Entry)
Level 6: 100/200 with a 25 Ante
Entries: 90

While the big Event 1 field is playing through the money in the ballroom, a talented group players took their seats in the meeting room across the hall. A more intimate affair for the $1,100 Six-Max players.

They recently returned from their first break of the day and Frenchmen Benoit Barral held the biggest stack among the 90 players mixing it up. The structure is slow and deep so there was little movement though more than a few were able to double up their 12,000 starting stack.

Also in the crowd are Mike Chiappetta, Dan Suied, Staffan Ling, Harrison Gimbel, and Seminole Hard Rock Poker team member/defending champ Michael Laake. There are no obvious soft spots in this game.
