Level 15
: 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Another strong showing of 520 entries showed on Saturday for Day 1b of the Mid-States Poker Tour (MSPT) Riverside $1,100 Main Event to play a full 15 levels with their sights set on joining the 57 who made it through Friday's Day 1a. When play finished, 63 remained and one player bagged north of half a million — Hunter Barnett with 501,000.
Barnett shot to the top of the counts during the last hour of play in the night after winning a massive pot with pocket kings against pocket aces. Four bets went in preflop with more chips going in postflop before stacks got in after a king hit on the river to give Barnett a set. Following in the counts are Howard Dion (493,000), Jason Ramos (454,000), Jalen Heald (409,000), and Jason Gross (387,000).
Other notables to bag included Nicola Ditrapani (277,000), Ryan Phan (211,000), Benjamin Craig (162,000), Brad Sailor (152,000), and Jonathan Kim (134,000).
Meanwhile, plenty of others such as Daniel Sepiol, Jeff Fielder, Aaron Johnson, Michael Berk, and Taylor Howard were unable to find themselves on the Day 2 roster.
Out of 928 total entries, a total 120 remaining players will return at 11 a.m. local time on Sunday to play down to one with the top 99 making it into the money. PokerNews will be back at it then to take you all the way to the finish line.
