Tim Glab Bags Monster Lead on Day 1b of the Parx big Stax 1100
Day 1b of the Parx Big Stax XXXII 1100 Championship attracted 374 runners, which along with Day 1a’s 217 brought the current field up to 591 entries. That number is sure to go up as late registration is open until Level 17 begins on Day 2.
Bagging the big stack in Saturday’s flight among the approximately 90 survivors was Tim Glab with a monster stack of 849,000. A big chunk of that came in the biggest pot of the tournament thus far, which was a three-way battle in the penultimate level of the night. Glab’s stack is nearly double that of Day 1a chip leader Steven Snyder’s 431,500.
Others to bag big stacks on Day 1b were Alida Veliu (575,000), Sharath Sreeramoju (536,000), Carl Pereira (550,400), John Calandra (419,000), and Jackob Datashvili (419,000).
Joining them for Sunday’s Day 2 will be Orson Young (406,500), Ryan Eriquezzo (295,000), Christian Harder (293,500), Stephanie Hubbard (151,500), and Alex “Chapo” Jim (81,000).
Of course, not everyone was fortunate enough to bag. Among those to fall on Day 1b were 2004 World Series of Poker Main Event champ Greg Raymer, Albert Albay, Stacy Bracey, Lye Diamond, and Ryan Herold.
Day 2, which will see Levels 16-21 increase to 60 minutes and Level 22 and beyond to 90 minutes, will get underway at Noon local time on Sunday here at Parx, albeit in the main poker room as opposed to the Parx East building. Late registration and reentry are open for an hour into play.
PokerNews will be on-site to capture all the action, so be sure to join us then.
