"January $100,000" (Day 2): Richard Kirsch Continues To Climb, Assumes Chip Lead

"January $100,000"
$360 No Limit Hold'em | $100,000 GTD
Level 20 (Blinds 5,000/10,000/1,000)
Total Entries: 485
Players Remaining: 32


Richard Kirsch (Ft. Lauderdale, FL) is coming off of two large scores, with a final table finish at the WPT Five Diamonds Poker Classic ($271,736), and a win in last week's $2,500 No Limit Hold'em Single-Ante ($42,000).

"Good game," Richard Kirsch said to Matthew Lambrecht, after his A♠ Q♣ got there on the river against Lambrecht's 8♠ 8.  Lambrecht became the second player eliminated by Kirsch, in the matter of three hands, which helped Richard eclipse the 800,000 mark.  Just two hands earlier, Kirsch flopped two pair against William Stanton's top pair, which held up for the elimination.

As this post was being published, Kirsch busted out yet another player, and is above the 900,000 mark, looking to become the first player above 1,000,000 in the field.

Ruchard Kirsch - 940,000 (94bb)
