Level 6
: 200/400, 50 ante
Two more players have emerged as contenders heading into the second break of the day, including the father of an MSPT Pro.
Eden Prarie, MN's Chris Orvis got it in with aces after a preflop raising war with another player holding nines. Aces held and he crested the 65,000 mark.
In the meantime, MSPT Pro Matt Alexander's father John Alexander, a Minneapolis local, has maneuvered his way just above that mark.
"I've had a couple of good hands," he said. "I sucked out both times. I'm a sucker."
