"February $50,000" (Flight 1A): It's Witz's World As Players Prepare To Head On Flight's Final Break

"February $50,000"
$250 No Limit Hold'em | $50,000 GTD
Level 8 (Blinds 300/600/75)
Total Flight 1A Entries: 103

Craig Witz (Hypoluxo, FL) is an intimidating figure at the table, with the size of his chip leading stack not making it any easier for players at the table.

At the conclusion of this level, players will be heading on their final break of the flight, returning to finish up the last pair of levels for the day.  Play will resume in Level 9, with new blinds of 400/800/100, and a chip average just over 40,000 (50 big blinds).  Updated chip counts will follow the break, but it looks like we already know who the chip leader will be.  Craig Witz (Hypoluxo, FL) doubled his stack during Level 7, and sits as the only player above the century mark.  His 140,000 is almost 50,000 units clear of his nearest opponent, but as we know, everything can change over the final two levels.

Witz is coming off his first ever WSOP Circuit cash, running deep in the $365 No Limit Hold'em Event #2, and finishing 19th of 1,766 entries (worth $4,005).
