Six players saw the {j-Spades}{7-Spades}{2-Clubs} flop. Two players checked before another player bet 625. Two players called, leaving three players going into the turn. The turn was the {6-Hearts} and two players checked to J.J. Adkins on the button. Adkins bet 1,050 and both his opponents called. The river was the {q-Diamonds} and all three players checked. Adkins took down the pot with {k-Spades}{j-Diamonds} for a pair of jacks.

Settling In

Level 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

It's been a pretty uneventful level so far. One player has already reentered, but for the most part it's been small pots with a couple chops.

Day 1b Begins at Noon

MSPT
MSPT

Yesterday, 154 entrants made up the Day 1a flight with 29 players making it through to Day 2. Today's flight will begin at noon local time. Today's field will also play 14 40-minute levels and bag up around 10 p.m. local time.

The MSPT FireKeepers event in May drew 614 runners, so a big crowd is expected today. A lot of the players seem to want to qualify before Saturday, in order to watch the Michigan vs. Michigan State football game. Tomorrow's flight will also start at noon and the three flights will combine Sunday at 11 a.m.

Today's players will be chasing Mike Ross (311,500) and Bill Rogers (287,000), and with a big crowd expected today, it is likely that the chip leader from today's flight will enter Day 2 with more chips than that. Stay tuned for updates and chip counts throughout the day.
