Miller On Pace
Level 10
: 500/1,000, 100 ante
James Miller has jumped in the lead on 120,000 now.

Overlay!
Level 9
: 400/800, 100 ante
With registration and re-entry now officially closed for all six flights, the days of the Niagara Falls Poker Room's perfect track record in exceeding its guarantees is over.
With 161 entries tonight bringing the total up to 594, there will be a small overlay. The players put $47,520 in the prize pool and the room will now have to kick in an extra $2,480 to meet the $50,000 guarantee.
Fear not though, as the staff here appear happy to juice up the local poker economy with a few thousand bucks and the entry fees collected will more than cover it.
The Niagara Falls Room will now look forward to starting another guarantee-exceeding streak with the beginning of the $200,000 Guaranteed $1,000 Seneca Fall Poker Classic Main Event this Friday.

Break; Registration and Re-Entry Ending; Walker Favored in Sabres Draw
Level 8
: 300/600, 75 ante
Nick Walker heads into the break trying to win tonight's draw for a pair of Buffalo Sabres tickets.
Walker appears willing to fire another bullet to get a second entry in the draw, unfortunately, with just a few minutes left to rebuy, he's having a little trouble going broke first.
He got it in with 
against Scott Aitchison's 
and crawled out from under domination to triple up.
If he doubles up again he may have let it ride with the single entry and depend on Poker Room Supervisor Brian Bartoe's uncanny ability to draw the names of popular regulars and friends of PokerNews in this completely random and legitimate draw.
The entire field heads into a 15-minute break right now with the registration and re-entry period closing when play resumes.
