[Removed:533] is off to a quick start with 65,000 chips. He is currently first on the Playground Poker World Cup of Cards leaderboard.
Here is a quick look at the top five on the leaderboard.
| Name | Leaderboard Points |
|---|---|
| [Removed:533] | 1,350.70 |
| Jason Conforti | 1,220.80 |
| Joey Boczek | 1,200.90 |
| Daniel Le | 929.1 |
| Carrie Webster | 921.6 |
Behind La [Removed:534] are Jason Conforti and Joey Boczek. All three players are in the field today. Conforti just sat down and is sitting with the starting stack and Boczek, who was here at the start is just above the starting stack with 32,000.
They are playing for a Leaderboard package worth $8,000 and Boczek has been hear many times declaring he would win. La [Removed:534] has a solid lead, and unless Conforti or Boczek make a deep run in the upcoming events, La [Removed:534] may already have a big enough lead to stay ahead just by entering the remaining tournaments.
Carrie Webster and Daniel Le have don't have enough available points to take the lead, so it's pretty much a three-person race.

Welcome to Day 1b of the CPPT $1,650 No-Limit Hold em tournament. The World Cup of Cards at Playground Poker Club welcomes its fourth poker tour host. The Card Player Poker Tour and a three day event with a $400,000 Guarantee. Just like yesterday's flight, the tournament field will play 14 45-minute levels. Thirty two players bagged last night and Jean Sebastien Dubois was the leader with 439,000.
The tournament is the second largest starting flight buy-in of the WCC tournament series. There have been multiple satellites and several of the Playground Poker Club regulars are expected to be in the field. The CPPT also offers a chance for some of the tournament leaderboard chasers to gain some ground on [Removed:533] who leads Jason Conforti and Joey Boczek for the $8,000 Carribean Poker Party Package. Conforti and La [Removed:534] both played Day 1a and Boczek is expected in the field today as well. It should be a tight race as the series draws to a close.
This is event #24 of the World Cup of Cards. The WCC is a month-long tournament festival entering its final week. PokerNews will be here throughout the festival, bringing you all the news, updates, and photos. Follow @pokernews on Twitter for live updates, Periscope broadcasts, and more.
