Roumen Arabadjiev Finds the Biggest Bag from Day 1a of Deepstack Kick-Off
The first flight of Event #3: $600 Deepstack Kick-Off saw 243 runners walk through the door and after 15 levels of play, only 41 remain with Roumen Arabadjiev bagging the lead from Day 1a.
Arabadjiev sat just about average for most of the day and it was not until the last few hands of the night that he really started to catapult near the top, eventually bagging the lead with a stack of 488,000.
Some other players to find a stack on the bigger side of things include George Alberto (435,000), Ralph Macri (311,000), Michael Wang (251,000), Michael Marder (205,000), Will "The Thrill" Failla (204,000), Rafael Reis (158,000), and Ryan McKnight (154,000).
The remaining players from this flight will combine with the next three starting flight survivors and return on Friday, November 8 at noon to battle it out on Day 2. Chip counts and seating assignments will be posted before the starting of Day 2.
The PokerNews live reporting team will be bringing all of the live coverage for the remainder of this event, so stay tuned as the action unfolds.
