Paused in Level 16: 4,000/8,000/1,000 Ante

It took three hands to get there but Flight A is now in the money with the clock was paused at 15:35 remaining in the level.

Martin Carnero took a two shots but no one looked up him before the big came on Table 2. Jonathan Sanchez put Al Gomez all-in with the board reading . Gomez went into the tank for several minutes before Sanchez called the clock.

He called the bet as the tournament supervisor was counting down from ten and saw he was in trouble. Sanchez was ahead with and Gomez was left with a gutshot draw holding . No help on the turn or river and Gomez was out in 51st.

The remaining 50 players are guaranteed a piece of the prize pool and will return on Monday to play out. Chad Freedman finished as the chip leader with 639,000 and Sanchez bagged the second biggest stack at 424,000.

Level 14: 2,000/4,000/500 Ante

Chad Freedman just shrugged when staff sent us to check him out. The chip leader is starting to run away from the 70 plus remaining and by knocking out a steady stream of players. He’s over 550,000 with the chip average is around 100,000.

Flight A is moving along quickly and we should see some hand-for-hand action before to long on the money bubble.

Level 13: 1,500/3,000/500 Ante

Registration closed for Flight A and they hit a nice, even, clean 500 entrants a minute before they returned.

That puts $150,000 towards the $500,000 Guarantee with seven more flights to go. We’re going to have a very big number when all the accounting is done.

Chad Freedman was the third break chip leader with 250,000 and was joined by local regular Steven Bennett as the only other player over 200,000. Freedman didn’t wait around and milk that stack, he pushed it over 350,000 while we were snapping his picture.
