Two time WSOP bracelet winner Loni Harwood is heating up as Day 1B of Event #19 winds down. Harwood has been in cruise control for much of the night and she has just crossed the century chip mark.
Her stack of 110,000 is one of the biggest in the room and she has already notched her second cash of the series after making the money in Event #7 the $565 No Limit Hold'em Colossus.

When the second flight of #Event 19: $564 Pot-Limit Omaha kicked off at 5 P.M. JC Tran was already in his seat. He wasted no time putting his 5,000 chip starting stack to work and had already doubled up by the second level.
Tran has not looked back and continues to drag in pot after pot adding to his stack. He is now sitting behind a tower of 120,000 and is near the top of the Day 1B chip counts with less than six levels of play left in the night.
