Paul Snead

The Seniors Event recently returned from the first break and we have a fantastic field on the other side of the Grand Ballroom. With 130 entries so far, the $50,000 guarantee was easily passed and they already have $67K up for grabs.

Some friends over there include Paul Snead, Jeffrey Silverstein, Judy Bielan, Richard Rice, Trent Smith, Emerson Ward, Matt Yorra, and Peter Fellows.

Snead is looking to extend the heater he started two weeks ago that finished with a win in the Tampa Poker Classic Championship.

Stephen Ibrahim

The first break ended and players returned to their seats. Unlike yesterday when we had a clear leader, this time around no one is running away with it after four levels.

No one was over 100K so we’ll highlight Stephen Ibrahim as one of our big stacks. Around since the beginning, the OG Hollywood poker regular is up to 68,000 and at (or near) the top.

Four levels are just about in the books and players will soon take their first break. We’re closing in on 300 entries for Flight C and taking those steps to create a seven-digit prize pool.

While the players are away from the Grand Ballroom, we will take our first peek at the early leaders.

Phil Krnyaich

With the board reading 9d8c2c4c and about 3K in the pot, Phil Krnyaich put his remaining 18,100 in the middle and Rafael Lima had him at risk with the bigger stack.

Krnyaich: QsQh
Lima: 8d7c

Krnyaich was ahead with the queens but had 14 outs to dodge on the river. The Th river was safe and he double back over a starting stack.

Phil Krnyaich – 39,200 (196 bb)
