Event 1 (Flight 1C): Action Underway For Flight 1C

"Battles At The Beach"
Event 1 ($175 No Limit Hold'em $125,000 GTD)
Level 1 (Blinds 25/50)
Total Flight 1C Entries: N/A


Tournament supervisor Ralph Brandt just made the rules announcement to the players already seated in the Flight 1C field, and the cards are in the air for the third of eight opening Event 1 flights.  There were a total of (187) entries from yesterday's opening day of action, with (21) players bagging chips for Day 2.  James Plate (Oakdale, NY) bagged the overall chip lead with 477,000 (from Flight 1B), with Robert Urspruch (Plantation, FL) bagging the Flight 1A chip lead (396,500).  Both players earned seats into the Battles At The Beach $1,500 Main Event, and will be joined by another duo from today's flights.

Flight 1C will be "live blogged" this afternoon, with coverage through the bagging process (around 6:30pm).  Official chip counts will follow for Flight 1D, which ends just after 1:00am, with the pattern continuing tomorrow and Saturday.  Sunday's Day 2 action will have full coverage, offering updates until a winner has been declared.
