Zhang Early Leader
Level 1
: 50/100, 0 ante
Tom Holke got active right away on his table to show who the captain is, but after picking up a few pots early on he dropped a few chips.
Aleksandar Tomovic bet 2,000 into a pot of 3,500 on the heads-up flop of 
and forced a fold from his sole opponent.
The early chip leader over on table five appears to be Ji Zhang, who already built his stack by 50%.
