With the registration and re-entry period now closed, this first flight officially drew 56.
In order to meet the $50,000 guarantee on the prize pool, the event will need to draw a minimum of 625 entries total. With five more flights to go over the next three days, including another at 6 p.m. tonight, it is still a good bet to do that and more.
To just meet the guarantee, Event #3 will need to average close to 114 entries for each flight the rest of the way. Considering the Niagara Falls Poker Room's track record in meeting the guarantees in these multiple-entry, multiple-starting-day tournaments, we recommend you take the over.

Rich Cadwallader says he's the luckiest man in the room, and he may be right.
Anthony Knoll ran a huge semi-bluff with a straight draw against Cadwallader on top pair. In the end, Cadwallader got all his chips when Knoll bricked out.
Now the only play over 50,000 in the room is the only one over 100,000, taking a huge chip lead into the late levels.

Shannon Farrell didn't bother looking, she just pushed her last 3,200 in the middle and prayed.
Two callers checked down an board before one made it 3,000 on the river. The other folded, claiming a five and after the ace high was turned over, Farrell looked at for the first time and thanked them all for the help.
A hand later she shoved again uncontested. A few more and she got it in again with versus the to chop and remain sitting just under what she started with.
