The 2015 Seneca Niagara Falls Summer Slam continues this evening with the sixth and final starting flight in Event #3, a $50 No-Limit Hold'em tournament with a $25,000 guarantee, kicking off at 6 p.m. local time in Western New York.
So far, 755 entries have already helped the event push well past the $25,000 prizepool guarantee and tonight's flight is expected to be the biggest yet.
Any and all survivors will return to play down to a champion Thursday, joining the 98 players already through from the first five flights. Tom Babiarz currently leads them all, sitting on top of a massive 254,700-chip stack.
As with all other flights, players will start tonight with 10,000 in tournament chips and plans to play 15 full 20-minute levels. Registration and unlimited re-entry is available until the start of Level 13.
Stay tuned for a ton of action from the falls as the PokerNews Live Reporting team will be on hand for it all.
2015 Seneca Niagara Falls Summer Slam Event #2 winner Galvin Van Brussel is running pretty good right now.
Of course, there's the Event #2 win, in which he refused a heads-up chop, then came from way down to capture the crown. Add that to the fact he's already bagged a stack from an earlier flight here in Event #3 and there's no denying he's on fire.

Hamilton, Ontario, Canada's Don Morris claims he's a recreational player and the massive stack sitting in front of him right now came purely through luck and good fortune.
"I'm no professional," he said. "I just can't miss. I'm on a roll."
In fact, he's rolled all the way into the chip lead heading into the second break and looking more and more like a wolf in sheep's clothing with every flop, turn and river.
Thanks to a massive three-way all-in hand where he managed to get pocket queens to stand up, Niagara-On-The-Lake, Canada's Jack Robson has jumped into a spot among the leaders now.
He's got over 60,000 in chips and looking for more.
