Chip Leader's Choice

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

The day began with chip leader Matt Brunskole betting James Goertz off a pot to extend the lead a little.

Speaking of overnight chip leaders, everybody was here for the call to shuffle up and deal outside of Jeff Hobrecker.

He was only a minute or two late, and didn't miss much. No stranger to Day 1 leads in Seneca Main Events, Hobrecker comes in with a top five stack and a determination to hang on to it.

In the past, Hobrecker may have had a little trouble delivering on the promise the early big stack brings, but he's dedicated to turning that around today. He refused to sell action, took 100 percent of himself in this event, and even went as far as to call his shot.

Dream. Declare. Deliver.
