Mike Kotlewski
Mike Kotlewski

While a number of players are close, it appears Mike Kotlewski is the first player past the 100,000-chip mark today.

The Franklin, Wisconsin resident collected most of his big stack catching one foe bluffing with a busted flush draw.

Cold Shot

Level 9 : 400/800, 100 ante
Matt Jaeger
Matt Jaeger

Matt Jaeger led into a {k-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} flop before his heads-up opponent jammed all in.

Jaeger took his time about it, but made the call with {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}. His opponent held {7-Hearts}{7-Spades} and hit the rail after the {a-Hearts} turn and {3-Spades} river made Jaeger top two pair.

Man Of Steele

Level 9 : 400/800, 100 ante
Patrick Steele
Patrick Steele

With no less than 10 cashes here on the MSPT, including four final table appearances, Patrick Steele has developed a reputation as a beast on this tour.

Add in a Heartland Poker Tour win back in 2013 and he is quickly becoming one of the Mid-West's most feared players.

Today he's managed to chip up steadily and get one player to commit his stack with tens versus his queens and now finds himself among the leaders.
