Chip Leader David Griffiths

With play headed towards the far reaches of Day 1a, David Griffiths is the first player to break the six-figure mark. He raised to 3,600 from early position and was called by Dan Mulgraw. Griffiths fired out for 7,000 on a flop of {9-Clubs}

{9-Clubs}

{9-Diamonds}

{J-Spades}

. Mulgraw called that bet, then called another 10,000 after the turn came {K-Spades}

{K-Spades}

. When the river fell {9-Hearts}

{9-Hearts}

, both players checked. Griffiths showed {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{A-Clubs}

for a full house, nines full of aces. That was the winner.

Griffiths now has 107,000 chips. Mulgraw slipped back to 46,000.
