Break!

Level 8 : 300/600, 75 ante

The players are now on a 15-minute break with the tournament staff coloring up and removing the T-25 green chips.

When they return for the start of Level 9, the registration and re-entry period will close for this flight. However, players can still get into the event through one of two more starting flights set for Saturday at 11 a.m. and 6 p.m. local time.

Paying The Bill

Level 8 : 300/600, 75 ante
Bill Tilden
Bill Tilden

Maine's Bill Tilden traveled to Western New York for the 2015 Seneca Fall Poker Classic looking to make a little money.

So far things are going swimmingly, as he's steadily chipped up throughout the day and now finds himself as the first player past the 100,000-chip mark with Level 8 coming to a close.

One of his bigger hands included flopping trip kings, waiting for Kristan Mackiewicz to hit an ace on the turn, and then calling her turn and river bets to the tune of 18,000.

Louis Ortiz
Louis Ortiz

From the lone tournament table at the back of the Niagara Falls Poker Room, Louis Ortiz has emerged as the new chip leader.

He claims to have been hit by the deck all day, including one massive hand where he flopped a set of eights against a flush and found a boat on the river.

Ortiz is now closing in on 100,000 and separating from the pack.

I Drink Your Milkshake

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante
Dominic Baranyi
Dominic Baranyi

Dominic Baranyi simply ate Joe Ciffa's lunch today, getting the better of him in pot after pot until finally busting the local legend with {q-}{j-} over {10-}{j-} on a jack-high flop.

As a result, Baranyi now finds himself among the leaders as Level 7 comes to a close.

Out Pace(d)

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante
Brian Bordinaro
Brian Bordinaro

After jumping out to an early lead, Brian Bordinaro was headed in the wrong direction before Bruce Pace came along.

Pace decided to get the last of his own dwindling stack in with {k-Clubs}{7-Clubs} on a {a-}{7-Diamonds}{X-Diamonds} flop. Bordinaro held the {a-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds} and was only too happy to call and get healthy again when the river came another diamond.

Napierala Survives

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante

Blake Napierala, who dominates most of the tournament series run here at Seneca, is off to a slow start in his effort to crush the 2015 Seneca Fall Poker Classic.

He got short, and faced with a 1,500-chip bet from the cutoff, got it in for a little over 5,000 from the button with the {k-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}.

The cutoff called with {q-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}, but could not bust the ever-dangerous Napierala, who held on a {2-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{6-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} run out.

Level: 7

Blinds: 250/500
