Flight 1A ($75,000 GTD): Chip Lead Race Tightening

$130 No Limit Hold'em ($75,000 GTD)
Level 13 (Blinds 1,500/3,000/400)
Total Flight 1A Entries: 83
Total Entries: 83
Flight 1A Players Remaining: 14

Atanael Thomas (Ft. Lauderdale, FL)

While play is scheduled to end at the conclusion of Level 16, the flight will also stop if the field reaches 8% of the total entries for the flight (so if 10 players remain as any point tonight).  With (14) players left at the moment, the possibility of play stopping before the end of Level 16 is very real.  Atanael Thomas (Ft. Lauderdale, FL) was all-in just a few levels ago, holding an open ended straight draw, against the pocket aces of Eric Mutschler.  Thomas hit his straight on the turn, and from then on, he's been steadily trending upward.  Atanael is now sitting with 245,000, which is only 40,000 behind Raymond Ruszkowski, a player who we thought was just going to runaway with the chip lead.  

Raymond Ruszkowski - 285,000
Atanael Thomas - 245,000
Josh Wasserman - 220,000
Harry Khutu - 180,000
Rafael Ramos - 130,000
