The remaining Day 1d players are now on their last 10-minute break of the night. When they return they'll play two more levels before bagging and tagging for the night.
Today's Ante Up Poker Tour Main Event in the Silks Poker Room at Tampa Bay Downs is the culmination of a six-event series that's been taking place all week long.
On Wednesday, Event #4: $130 No-Limit Hold'em ($5,000 guaranteed) drew 41 entries, which meant there was an overlay to the $3,977 generated prize pool. Only the top six players got paid and they did so by working a deal.
As a result, Michael Petty was crowned champion and took home a smooth $1,000. The other five players each received $800.

Three checks put action on Kane and he bet 10,000. That was all it took as one by one his opponents folded.
