Hamburg, New York's Randy Pfeifer won this event last year and although it's still early on here in this three-day event, he seems to be more than ready to defend that title.
Earlier on he managed to flop a set of sixes against one-player with top-top to drag a 26k pot. Since then he's done nothing but win small pot after small pot and now has a stack approaching the 100k mark - one of the largest in the room.
Another level is over and before we start the next, the players are off on a 15-minute break.

Mike Matusow has doubled up since we last saw his stack, but it didn't happen in the traditional way.
The Mouth was only to happy to tell PokerNews he's chipped up over the last level without showdown or the benefit of a big pot.
Grinding away, he's now turned his attentions to betting the NBA. Apparently the Mavericks and the over is a lock.

The dwindling field here at the Seneca Niagara Casino just got a lot less appealing to look at. We walked over to Table 4 to find that Friend of Team DeepStacks Annie LePage had been eliminated. According to Karina Jett, LePage moved all in with 
on a 
flop, but her opponent had wasted no time in calling with his set of fives.
LePage is sticking around to watch Matusow until the dinner break.
