Wayne Cleveland Leads Flight D of Event #2: $50,000 Guaranteed
The 2014 Seneca Fall Poker Classic continued Monday evening with the fourth of six flights in Event #2, a $125 no-limit hold'em reentry tournament. Flight D saw a field of 67 play down to 13, and after 12 levels of play Wayne Cleveland emerged as the leader with 132,600. He was followed closely by Sonny Rattan (122,800) and Adam Oshei (122,300).
Cleveland had a stack of only 44,000 going into the final two levels of the night and told the PokerNews Live Reporting team that he was going to loosen up his play in order to have a big stack going into Day 2. He did just that, more than tripling his stack and finishing the flight on top of the leaderboard.
Among those who failed advance on Monday night were Jason Nablo, John Stempier, Art Demmerley, Aaron Obstein, Mark Roberts, Alex Rivera and Joe Ciffa. Each of them will get another opportunity during the final two starting flights on Tuesday.
After four flights a total of 64 players have advanced to Day 2. Here's a look at the top 10 stacks:
Player | Chips |
---|---|
Marc Pusmucans | 188,000 |
Darrin Bracken | 173,000 |
Mirko Medic | 160,600 |
