Wardlaw Rolling in Cash; Doubles Up With Big Slick
Level 2
: 100/200, 200 ante
Charles Wardlaw, who looks ready to play on an episode of High Stakes Poker with a pile of banded up hundred-dollar bills in front of him, limped from under the gun and the next player to act raised to 700.
The action folded to the big blind, who called. Wardlaw then three-bet to 3,000 and the initial raiser jammed. The big blind folded and Wardlaw called with a smaller stack.
Charles Wardlaw: 
Opponent: 
Wardlaw had trapped his opponent and maintained the best hand to double up as the board ran out 
to ship him the pot with a pair of kings.
Looks like he won't need to reach into that heap of cash for re-buy funds just yet.

Third and Final Starting Flight Almost Underway in Event #1: $560 NLH
The third and final starting flight of the Event #1: $560 NLH opening event at the bestbet Jacksonville Spring Series is scheduled to get underway at noon EST.
Like the first two starting flights, players on Day 1c will begin with a stack of 20,000 chips and blinds of 100/200, with play being eight-handed. Levels will last 30 minutes with 15-minute breaks every three levels. Late registration will remain open until the start of Level 10 and players are allowed unlimited re-entries.
Also like the first two starting flights, Day 1c will stop when 12.5% of the field remains or at the tournament director's discretion. The third and final starting flight will take place at noon on Saturday.
Day 2 will take place on Sunday, April 24 as the remaining players from each starting flight battle it out and the final table will be live-streamed on bestbetLIVE.
Georgia's Brian Dumaplin bagged the chip lead in Day 1a with a stack of 424,000 to lead the 15 players who survived the day. On Day 1b, Florida's Matthew Sundberg bagged a slightly smaller stack, 403,000, to lead the 22 remaining Day 1b players.
