Blake Vita

Play has come to an end in the first Flight of Event 6 and Blake Vita is the early leader returning for Day 2. It looked like Seminole Hard Rock Tampa poker ambassador Wally Maddah was going to lock up those honors but Vita took a nice pot off of Timothy Kegel on the last hand to move ahead, his 246,000 just a little bit better than Maddah’s 212,000.

There were 28 players still around after 14 levels and they will return on Wednesday at 1pm to play to a champion.

Full Flight A chip counts will be posted as soon as they are available.

Top five Flight A stacks:

  1. Blake Vita – 296,000
  2. Wally Maddah – 212,000
  3. George Khoriaty – 198,500
  4. Haim Toorgeman – 195,500
  5. Andre Rakusa – 160,500
