Level 6
: 250/500, 50 ante
All apologies, but Toronto, Canada's Raj Saba doesn't have a clear memory of how he managed to book a spot among the leaders here in Level 6.
There was one murky thought involving big slick and a king on the river, but the ability to recall full hand histories is not a strong suit of Saba's.
Regardless, he's got more chips than most heading into Level 7.
There's this next level and the one following still left to register and reenter, and with the board reading 140, this the already the biggest of three flights so far.

Donating To Pace
Level 5
: 200/400, 50 ante
Bruce Pace has grabbed the chip lead thanks to an Aaron Olshan donation.
Olshan turned up to play today despite bagging big in the second flight Friday and reserving his seat in the play down to a champion Sunday.
Here in Level 5, Pace made fours and fives to crack his queens for heaps, then took the rest holding with top pair queens against a king-high flush draw.
This latest Olshan bullet is now in the books and notable time bomb Pace is at the top of the counts ticking away.

Set 'Em Up, Knock 'Em Down
Level 4
: 150/300, 25 ante
Cazenovia, NY's Brad Becker was on the right end of a massive four-way set up moments ago.
He flopped a set, another player flopped a flush, a third turned a straight, and a fourth came along for the ride with top two pair.
The board paired on the river making Becker a boat and by the time the dust settled, he had over 40,000 and the Level 4 chip lead.

The Good News
Level 3
: 100/200, 0 ante
It's all gravy now.
With the board hitting 91 entries on this flight, the $50,000 guarantee has been met. Now, with five more levels of registration and reentry and another flight to come this evening, it's just a matter of how big this thing can get.
In the meantime, Level 3 is about to end and it appears James Morin will take the lead into a 10-minute break, after making two straights and collecting what amounted to a double up out of them.
