Perfect River for Filtz

Level 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

We found Justin Filtz in the big blind check-calling 4,000 from the player on the button on a board of {5-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}. On the {2-Diamonds} river, Filtz checked again and his opponent went all in. Filtz quickly called, and he was shown {9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} for a flush. Filtz had it beat though, as the same card that filled his opponent's flush gave Filtz a boat with {4-Clubs}{4-Spades}.

One week after Ken Pates claimed nearly $90,000 with a victory at Mid-States Poker Tour Running Aces Harness Park, the tour is back with the year's second stop at Ho-Chunk Gaming in Wisconsin Dells, Wisc. Last time the MSPT came through town, Jason Sell defeated a field of 383 runners to claim a first-place prize of $97,539.

Cards are scheduled to be in the air at 4 p.m., and the tournament will be using the Allen Kessler-approved structure it adopted for the last main event here. Stacks will start at 20,000, with blinds beginning at 50/100 and going up every 40 minutes. A total of 14 levels will be played today, with each player being allotted one reentry through the first nine levels.
