Kyle Jeffery has emerged as not just the first player past the 100,000-chip mark, but the first player past the 200,000-chip mark.

He made a set of eights and faded a combo draw to drag a six-figure pot and is now cruising to the close with 210,000 in chips and a massive lead over the remaining field.

The 2015 Seneca Niagara Falls Summer Slam continued today with the first of six starting flights in Event #3, a $50 No-Limit Hold'em tournament with a $25,000 guarantee.

The flight drew a total of 117 entries, playing down to just 15 remaining players as Level 15 came to a close. Kyle Jeffery fired a late bullet into the flight and quickly ran it up, making hand after hand until he bagged 204,200. No one is even really close at this point.

These 15 survivors will come back to play down to a champion Thursday, but the event continues at 6 p.m. ;local time this evening with a second starting flight.

Stay tuned for a ton of action from the falls as the PokerNews Live Reporting team will be on hand for it all from start to finish.
