[user127999]

Level 15 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

The second starting flight of the 2015 Western New York Poker Challenge Event #5: $50 No-Limit Hold'em event is done with 17 players pushing through to Day 2.

Jeremy O'Brien built a big stack early and kept stacking on the way to a chip count of 182,000 and the end-of-day chip lead.

The flight drew a total 136 entries, dwarfing the 113 from the Day 1a session that saw 13 players go through. With a total of 249 entries so far, the event is well on it's way to making the $25,000 Guarantee.

Survivors from both flights will return for Day 2 Thursday at 12 p.m. local time to play down to a winner.

In the meantime, Tuesday and Wednesday will see four more starting flights beginning with Day 1c tomorrow at 11 a.m. local time.

As usual, the PokerNews Live Reporting Team will be here to keep you up to date on all the action as it happens.
