Level 12
: 800/1,600, 200 ante
Defending champ Dan Wagner is no more after running the 
into Jim Girdlestone's nines for a 40 big-blind stack. There's little doubt the champ will want another shot at it tomorrow. Ringing that reentry bell whenever he feels like rolling out of the sack sounds like a plan.
One table over, Anne Jones chewed away at one player's stack for a while, then took a big bite for it all making the high end of a straight with him on the low. She's got 150,000 now, and having had a taste of success at Seneca previously as well, she's hungry for more.
Plus, you can count last night's 2017 Seneca Fall Poker Classic $300 Pot Limit Omaha champ Chris Meyers among those sitting over 100,000, running hot, and looking focussed.
Right now they're down to 32 at four tables with Level 12 over.

Level 11
: 600/1,200, 200 ante
Alex Visbisky ran kings into aces to fall back to the middle of the pack. Three outed for the rest a few minutes later and he's gone. I guess that means we're done talking about how he led flight one last year.
Alan Findlay is still the only one over 200,000 headed into Level 11, but Blake Napierala looms close by. Legends, both of them.
Plus, there's 'Big Daddy' Cameron Bartolotta coming up on the My Stack App with over 100,000 now. He's looking to try to put something big in the bag with a little of that My Stack App magic, having been there and done that so many times before.
Level 11
: 600/1,200, 200 ante
Seneca Superstar Budwey Salhab buys in at the break for 25 big blinds to bring the flight's total entries to 95. Spin it up or try again on Saturday like a boss. Good luck Bud, the boys from the local are pulling for you.
There's 41 left halfway into into Level 11. Registration and reentry is now closed. But, there's another chance to get in all day tomorrow. They'll play five levels and the survivors will bag up with a shot at making the money and more on Sunday.

Level 10
: 500/1,000, 100 ante
Alan Findlay moved over 200,000 to take sole possession of the chip lead headed into the scheduled 45-minute dinner break.
In the meantime, Blake Napierala joined the group near the top of the counts, turning a flush against a flopped straight for heaps, then scoring another 50,000 off Chris Gras.
Gras' fall from grace over the past 40 minutes also included giving back heaps to Frank Tatar. He's still got a stack, however, and will join the group of approximately 44 remaining back at the tables when play resumes at 7 p.m.
Level 10
: 500/1,000, 100 ante
The best way to jump into a dead heat for the chip lead here at the Seneca Fall Poker Classic is to do it by sending a World Series of Poker bracelet winner broke.
That's what Alan Findlay just did, sending 2012 WSOP $2,500 Mixed Event champ Chris Tryba to the rail for the second time today.
Findlay also got the added bonus of busting a third player at the same time. Both Tryba and the third player flopped sets and got it in, but they couldn't fade Findlay's willingness to gamble or his flush draw.

Level 9
: 400/800, 100 ante
Chris Gras can finally stop complaining about how bad he runs in tournaments now, after getting it all in with king's versus Frank Tatar's aces and spiking a king on the flop.
Gras' set almost didn't hold as Tatar did make four to the nut flush on the turn, but he bricked the river.
Gras had a little over 70,000 to start the hand, but ended it with the chip lead heading into the last level before dinner.
Tatar should be the one lamenting his bad luck now. The ink was barely dry on the story of his chip lead when Gras cut him down to starting stack size.
