Adam Jaffe is coming off a nice run over the last few days leading up to the Championship and having a nice day so far. He is up to 148,000 and among the leader with the dinner break on the horizon.

We bumped up the buy-ins on the last three days before the Championship, running one-day Deep Stacks with $600 and $1,100 and $2,200 buy-ins. Jaffe made the final table of all three with a runner-up in the $600 and seventh place finish in the $1,100 before he just went ahead and won the $2,200.

Not too shabby.
