Isle Poker Classic Event #7 (Day 1D): Isle Poker Classic Main Event Eclipses $200,000 Guarantee, Bruno Fortin Early Day 1D Chip Leader

2018 Isle Poker Classic (Event #7)
$1,100 No Limit Hold'em Main Event
$200,000 GTD
Level 5 (Blinds 200/400/400)
Total Day 1D Entries: 61


The Day 1D field now has (61) entries, and a prize fund of $59,780, which puts us above the $200,000 posted guarantee for the event.  The number is just going to grow as the evening plays on, with even more entries joining the action tomorrow afternoon (as registration stays open until the first Day 2 hand is dealt, at 12:00pm).  

Bruno Fortin (Quebec, Canada) currently leads the field, and is the only player to have eclipsed the century mark.  Bruno has over $38,000 in lifetime tournament earnings, including one final table finish here at the Isle (in a recurring tournament last year).   

Updated chip counts from the Day 1D field are listed below:

Bruno Fortin - 105,000 (262bb)
Manny Amaro - 75,000 (187bb)
Chris Howard - 70,000 (175bb)
Alice Zheng - 60,000 (150bb)
Nancy Birnbaum - 60,000 (150bb)
Eric Rivkin - 55,000 (137bb)
Brian Hastings - 55,000 (137bb)
