The Summer Slam $125 Reentry Event's Fourth Flight Starts Now!
![[user127999]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
The 2017 Seneca Niagara Falls Summer Slam tournament series continues this evening inside the Niagara Falls Poker Room at the Seneca Niagara Resort & Casino with the fourth of six starting flights for the $125 No-Limit Hold'em Reentry event.
This is what poker is about. It's fun, and it's a great opportunity to win a lot for just a little.
With six starting flights, this event will create a big prizepool and it's cheap to buy in. In fact, it's guaranteed to be at least $25,000, but if the past is any indication, it will end up being almost double that.
Everyone from top local players to slot junkies walking by the poker room can take a shot, multiple shots if they so choose. In fact, registration and unlimited reentry is available through the start of Level 9 in each flight. Plus, even those who bag one flight can take a shot at another one in an effort to bag even more. They will carry the best stack forward.
Player in each flight will start with 10,000 in chips and play 14 full 30-minute levels or until 12 percent of the entries remain. Those who survive will push through to Day 2 Thursday where the big money awaits.
So far there have been 169 entires and 22 players have survived.
This third flight starts at 6 p.m. local time today and there is another two flights at 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. Wednesday.
It should be fun from start to finish with poker action asplenty and you're welcome to follow along with it all right here on PokerNews.

Best Stack Forward
Level 3
: 100/200, 0 ante
Two of the seven players who bagged chips in Tuesday morning's third flight are back at it here in the fourth.
One of the great things about multiple starting flight tournaments is the ability to play more than one flight. Mark Roberts and Todd Saffron may have reserved seats in Day 2 already, but they are taking advantage of the opportunity to put more in the bag and give themselves a better chance to run deep.
Both players will simply carry the best stack they can bag, into Day 2 Thursday.
Mississippi stud Roberts ended the third flight with 62,600 and just jumped in here tonight. On the other hand, Saffron has been here from the jump and already has more than the 37,900 he put in the bag earlier.
In fact, it looks like Saffron will take the lead into the first break of this flight.

Level 4

Joe Dantuono has vaulted into the chip lead here in the flight's fourth level.
He's made two pair at least twice. The first time he played semi-bluff catcher against a pair and a flush draw with aces and queens. The second time he called one short stack's all in with deuces, found another pair on the board and faded all trouble against two overs.
Now, he's the first player to reach 50,000 and coasting.
