The $1,100 Deep Stack wasted no time getting a big crowd in the Grand Ballroom and they’ve already surpassed the $100,000 guarantee. The only thing that can slow them down is registration closing at 3:30 pm.

A few friendly faces in early action include Andy Slater, Tony March, Luke Brereton, Howard Mash, Daniel Pearlman, Scott Zakheim, and Paul Balzano.

Slater is running hot over the last two months; we host a monthly tournament for the South Florida newsman and Slater won his namesake tournament the first two times it ran.
