Huang Holds Early Lead
Level 4
: 100/200, 200 ante
In what's proving to be a busy day, the number of Day 1B entries continues to climb, coming in at 119 at present, with 95 players still in the running and fighting it out over 12 tournament tables.
The man who seems to be out in front at present is Taiwan's Fu Bang Huang, who has pressed on since winning that big pot with aces earlier and has spun his stack up to around 110,000 or so, which puts him atop the counts for now.
Singapore's Richard Lim (82,000) was the only other player we could find anywhere close to Huang, with most of the rest of the field closer to the 37,000 average.
