Tom Gity (Pompano Beach, FL) 

The cards are in the air for Level 9 (400/800/100), with registration now closed for Flight 1E.  The flight had a total of (99) entries, with half of that number returning from break.  Isle Poker tournament regular Tom Gity (Pompano Beach, FL) is currently leading the field with 90,000, looking to put last weekend behind him.  Gity was sitting comfortably during the middle stages of Day 2 ("August $150,000), only to get coolered (flush under flush), in a spot where it was very difficult to find a fold.  A deep run in this event would surely help lessen the sting, so a solid Day 2 starting stack is exactly what Tom is looking for. Posted below are updated chip counts from the field:

Tom Gity - 90,000
Juan Pineda - 75,000
John Santoro - 62,000
Paul Shafran - 60,000
Jose Parra - 58,000
Tony Mucci - 36,000
Arlene Vazquez - 35,000
Evan Teitelbaum - 24,000
