"January $100,000 II" (Day 2): Cards In The Air, First Focus Is On Money Bubble

"January $100,000 II"
$250 No Limit Hold'em | $100,000 GTD
Level 16 (Blinds 2,000/4,000/500)
Total Entries: 867
Players Remaining: 118

Michael Marks (North Lauderdale, FL) is already all smiles, as he starts the day with a stack size that you'll see closer to the final table.

The cards have been in the air for about (15) minutes, and the Day 2 field has already lost seven players, from the starting number of (125).  The chip average of 132,000 is just over (30) big blinds, but as the day progresses, you will see that number (ratio) shrink.  Michael Marks started the day with a healthy chip lead, and has already increased his stack over the first orbit of the day.  Michael's most recent cash came back in November of last year, when he took fourth place money in a final table chop of the "November $100,000," a $175 buy-in event that ran during the first week of the month.  A total of (82) players will reach the money, so it looks like we are still about an hour away from that point, but Day 2 coverage will bring you updates at least once per level as the day plays out (the updates will become more frequent as the field shrinks).
