Tom Gity (Pompano Beach, FL) had the chip lead as the final three hands started...lost it to Rafael Calero...then Donald Williams...but regained the top spot on the final hand of the night.

The race for the chip lead bonus saw the lead change each of the final three hands, with Tom Gity picking up the blinds and antes on the final hand, to secure himself a $1,100 No Limit Hold'em ($200,000 GTD) seat.  Tom unofficially put 210,000 in his Day 2 bag, which was just a few thousand more than both Donald Williams and Rafael Calero.  

Official chip counts from the flight will be posted once all bags have been verified by tournament staff.  This will conclude live blogged coverage for the day, but followers can check back late this evening for official chip counts from Flight 1D.
