The third starting flight of the $600 BFPO Kickoff has wrapped up with 27 players remaining and leading the way is Thomas Yarbrough as the only player to bag over a million in chips.
Yarbrough is trailed by two well-known players in James Calderaro and Maxwell Young, while others toward the top of the counts include Matthew Walko, Antonia Gjujaj and Joseph Cutler.
There were 42 spots paid in this flight, so there were a handful of players who made the money despite not bagging.
There are still three more flights to go in this $1 million guaranteed event, including the currently underway Day 1f on the other side of the room.
