Level 8 is about to end and players will take another 15-minute break when the clock hits zero. Registration will close when they return and we will see how many more are needed in Flight D to hit the $1,000,000 guarantee.

It won’t take much.

The first weekend of the series is here, which means we will see even more friends from out of town. We usually have a nice crossover between here and our sister room in Tampa and today is no different.

Among the traveling group we found Cheri Beatty, Christopher Mo, Tony March, Wagner Wysotchanski, Kevin Blewitt, Steve Blackmon, and Ryan Hogan.

Level 5:  200/400 with a 400 ante
Flight C Entries:  493

Flight C returned from their first break, closing on 500 entries, and edging up near the seven-digit guarantee. You can lock that number up and we can start looking to some bigger milestones.

Genesis Chacon was the chip leader at break, coming back to her seat to a stack worth 93,300. Jacob Naumann had the second biggest in the room with 89,200 but he added some early in Level 5 and pushed over 95,000.

Level 3:  100/200 with a 200 ante
Flight C Entries:  346

Another big turnout this morning with the 346 entries so far putting a combined $745K in the prize pool and they will easily beat the $1,000,000 guarantee.

A few friendly faces in early action include Jacob Naumann, Aaron Massey, Rafael Lima, and Willie Wiggins.

Wiggins stepped outside his comfort zone a bit and played the $400 H.O.R.S.E. yesterday. The NLH regular ran deep and finished second in a three-way deal at the final table.
