Chip Leader Fell

$2000 + $200 Championship Event
$500,000 Guaranteed Prize Pool (Day 1A)

Just as I had identified the chip leader, his table was broken and he landed at table two. Jeff Fell (Robinsville, NJ) is right at 100k.

Jeff Fell

His first hand at the new table he raised to 2k from the cutoff. The big blind re-raised to 5k and Jeff called. The flop came 8 4 4 with two hearts and the big blind led out for 6k. Jeff asked what he had left, then opted to fold. So he's got a little less than 100k, but is still the chip leader.

Eight tables remain with a couple of empty seats which means about 78 players are still alive on day 1A. Average stack is almost 42k.
