Jay Clark Leads 20 Fourth Flight Survivors, 77 Total Through To Sunday

The fourth and final starting flight for the 2017 Seneca Niagara Falls Summer Slam $200 No-Limit Hold'em drew 142 entries Saturday.

With that, the total entries reached 520 over four flights, smashing the $50,000 guarantee, and creating an $83,981 prizepool.

They played the full 14 levels in this flight and some 20 players survived. That makes it a total of 77 through to Sunday's Day 2.

This evening, Jay Clark grabbed the lead after finally getting aces to hold up in a key pot late. He'll take 206,500 into the play down to a champion Sunday. Mark Roberts retains the overall lead, coming out of the first flight with over 300,000.

They should play into the money fairly quickly Sunday with the top 54 all earning. The payouts will be updated Sunday, but it appears they will be playing for a healthy $19,300 first-place prize. It's an impressive number considering the $200 buy-in.

PokerNews' Summer Slam coverage will continue with final day of this $200 No-Limit Hold'em reentry event starting at 12 p.m. local time Sunday and they will play until a winner is crowned. Stay tuned.
