$150 No Limit Hold’em Re-Entry
Level 14: 1,200/2,400 with a 400 ante
Flight 1E Entries: 383
Players Remaining: 33

The fifth flight of the $150 No Limit Hold’em Re-Entry event was, until the sixth flight kicked off, the biggest of any starting flight. It only makes sense that the biggest stack of the tournament thus far would come from it.

Ty Akbasli couldn’t seem to lose a single pot of any significance in the late stages of Day 1E and bagged the chip lead of both his flight and of the overall tournament with 405,000.

After 14 levels of play, the 383 players that entered this flight were trimmed down to just 33 players, with the aforementioned Akbasli leading the way.

Joining Akbasli at the top of the 1E chip counts are Olvenso Savoie, Sebastian Toro and John Palace with 290,500, 206,500 and 204,000, respectively.

The 33 survivors bring the total number of Day 2 entrants thus far to 135. They will all come back on Wednesday at 1 p.m. to play down to a winner.
