FSPC Main Event (Flight 1C): First Look At The Chip Counts

2017 Florida State Poker Championships
Event 20 - $1,500 No Limit Hold'em ($500,000 GTD)
Level 5 (Blinds 200/400/50)
Total Flight 1C Entries: 1

Bryan Emory (Plantation, FL)

It would be wise to think that Danny Shiff's Flight 1A chip lead is going to be safe (535,600), as the field is just becoming too large (and structure too slow) to see one person amass a stack of that size.  That being said, players still want to enter Day 2 in the best possible shape, as "moving day" shapes the landscape of the tournament's Day 3.  Joshua Lowing and Quang Pham are the first players to eclipse the 100,000 mark, with another new name making his introduction with a top stack.

Bryan Emory (Plantation, FL) is sitting with 75,000, which is in the top ten at this point in the day.  Bryan is coming off a life changing score at the WSOP, finishing runner-up in the $1,500 No Limit Hold'em Bounty (Event #50).  Emory fell to Isle Poker notable Christopher Bolek during heads-up play, but still walked away with $266,646.

Quang Pham - 110,000

Joshua Lowing - 100,000
