Event 1 (Flight A): Going "Bonus Hunting"

Event 1 ($150 Monster Stack NLH)
Level 13 (Blinds 1,200/2,400/300)
Total Flight A Entries: 69
Flight A Players Remaining: 15

Rafael Reis (Curitiba, Brazil)

As we mentioned in the last post, the three players with the largest stack at the end of each flight will receive a little "bonus," which earns them free entry into Event 5 ($570 NLH) of this series.  With only three levels of play remaining in Flight A, now would be a good time to update you on a few players currently in contention for those top stacks.  

Rafael Reis (Brazil) is no stranger to deep tournament runs, amassing career tournament earnings just under $310,000.  His standout scores both came at Seminole Hard Rock (Hollywood), with cashes of $87,000 (2015) and $91,000 (2014).  Reis currently leads the way with (15) players remaining, and hopes to continue that trend to end the flight:

Rafael Reis - 220,000
Tom Moran - 155,000
Giovanni Cantatore - 140,000
Chris Morris - 110,000
