Big Stax 500 (Day 1A): Parting Shots (…For The Night)

Level 15 (Blinds 2,000/4,000/500)
Total Entries: 242

Many players were wondering what the turnout for this event would be like after the massive field from the Big Stax 300.  In the past, this $550 event would attract numbers for Day 1A like 100 and 152.  It was clear that today was going to be different when we had 160 entries at 2:00pm.  We saw many faces who've already stamped deep runs in this series (Rocco Luciano, Nancy Martin, Ray Ross, Joe Gola, Joe McKeehen), and some of those for the first time (David Kim, Andrew Spears, DJ MacKinnon).  It was David Kim's early run toward the top which headlined early Day 1A play, but story at the end of the day will be all of the solid names bagging really healthy stacks going into Day 2 (Sunday).

End of Day 1A chip counts will be posted shortly after verification of counts by the tournament directors.
