Day 1C of the $500 + $50 Playground 500 just ended with 17 players bagging to advance to Day 2. The tournament is the marquee event of the November Power Weekend and features a $100,000 guaranteed prize pool.
The last of three live flights attracted a nice sized field with a total of 67 entries who played through 14 levels of 30 minutes. The lead changed hands a few times through the course of the evening and when it was all said and done, it was Robert Renaud who bagged the top stack.
The three top stacks are:
- Robert Renaud, 423,000 chips
- Ramsey Belmaaza, 376,000 chips
- Matt Wade, 331,000 chips
Here are some of the players who were able to find a bag for Day 2:
