$1,650 Winter Poker Open Championship
Beginning of Level 7: 250/500/75 Ante
Players are in seats, cards are in the air and Level 7 is off and running. Staff had their work cut out for them during the break as there was no shortage of big stacks on the felt. Most notably, Carl Carodenuto, who claimed an MSPT title at Canterbury less than a week ago, sits with 220,000 chips. Not only does that leave him as the biggest stack in the room, but it puts him second in the overall counts as of now. Quite the feat considering it’s only Level 7.
Other big stacks are owned by Antuan Bunkley (160,000) who finished 7th in the series-opening event, Daniel Ramirez (157,000), who also final tabled the opener before finishing runner up, and Aldo Truong (132,500).
Here’s a look at some stacks from around the room:
- Carl Carodenuto – 220,000
- Antuan Bunkley – 160,000
- Daniel Ramirez – 157,000
- Aldo Truong – 132,500
- Alex Ivan – 129,000
- Michael Laake – 73,000
- John Pappas – 56,000
- Jesse Fulmer – 44,500
- Andrew “AJ” Kelsall – 33,500
The clock shows 208 players registered with late registration/re-entry available until the start of Level 9.
