Table 17 was six-handed when we returned from dinner break, and now only one player remains. David "Bakes" Baker, who won his second career bracelet in the $10,000 H.O.R.S.E. Championship last night, outlasted Christina Lindley, Ali Eslami and three others to advance to Day 2. On the final hand, Bakes had the button and raised to 4,400.
