The second of three Day 1 flights wrapped up with 22 survivors from the 110 entrants that took to the felt. With an hour remaining there were nearly 40 players remaining but Jose Montes went on a hot run that saw him end with 417,000.

Montes eliminated half a dozen players in the last 30 minutes alone and by all accounts was getting hit with the deck. Joining him in the top ten are David ODB Baker and Tai Du, who just won a preliminary event of the River Poker Series against Maria Ho.

Daniel Lowery, Leslie Hallaway and Papa Karn all return at Sunday at noon where they'll play down to a winner.

Michael Lech Kisses His Chips Goodbye

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 200 ante
Michael Lech kissed his chips goodbye.
Michael Lech kissed his chips goodbye.

Matt Wilson opened to 2,600, Shelby Fall called on the button and Michael Lech called from the big blind. The flop came {7-Spades}{6-Hearts}{3-Hearts}, Lech bet 3,500, Wilson mucked and Fall called. The turn came {J-Diamonds}, Lech bet 5,000 and Fall called. The river came {6-Clubs}, Lech hesitated and then bet 5,000 again.

Fall insta-raised to 20,000 and Lech sat back in his chair. He counted his stack, counted out enough to call and then literally kisses them before tossing them in the pot.

Fall tabled {6-Spades}{6-Diamonds} for quads, Lech dusted his cards away and Fall stacked 80,000 after the hand.
