Born right here in Niagara Falls, NY, Edward Liner moved to Texas back in 1981. He's back in town visiting family this week and figured he'd give this 2017 Seneca Fall Poker Classic event a shot tonight. After all, it is Texas Hold'em.

Good thing he did. He can't even remember all the hands he's won so far, there's been so many. Liner's on 145,000 in chips right now and that's good for a healthy Level 11 lead.

That empty chair with 90,000 in front of it turned out to belong to Jacob Durjeman. He and Steve Herman are the closest to Liner's lead.

There's 32 left now moving to 1,200-2,400 blinds with a 300 ante.

Adam Williams took heaps from Edward Liner when they got it all in moments ago.

Liner flopped top pair aces and the nut-flush draw against Williams' big slick. No diamond forced Liner to give away that chip lead.

But it was secret agent man Bradley Girdler who moved into the lead in Level 13. He's got 150,000 to lead 20 left headed into a 10-minute break.

Among those 24 is Jason Nablo and a 60,000-chip stack. Looks like the third bullet was the charm for Nablo as he continues to add to his legendary legacy.

On The Bubble Of The Bubble

Level 14 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

They're moving through Level 14 just two spots off the money, so it's essentially the bubble.

Nobody is playing to min-cash, but nobody wants to miss it either. They inch closer to Level 15 on the quiet side with Bradley Girdler still leading.
