Event 16 (Flight 1G): First Look At Chip Counts

Event 16 ($150 No Limit Hold'em Re-Entry)
$100,000 Guaranteed Prize Pool
Level 10 (Blinds 500/1,000/100)
Total Flight 1G Entries: 183
Flight 1G Players Remaining: 99

The Flight 1G field is below the (100) player mark for the first time since the first few levels of the day, as the increasing blinds are beginning to catch up to the smaller stacks.  The chip average is currently 47,000 (47 big blinds), but the (25) minute levels do tend to force the action as the clock winds down on the flight.  Here are some of the larger stacks in the field as play hits the middle of Level 10:

Steve Lake - 140,000
Roman Ojeda - 110,000
David Haimes - 100,000
Tim Moran - 85,000
Pedro Aldave - 75,000
Curtis Daye - 75,000
Linda Lipkins - 70,000

There is a large group of players sitting in the 65,000-75,000 range, but as we reach the final break of the day (after Level 12), we should begin to see some separation in the field.
