Rodney Rodrigue

Flight C came to an end when Rodney Rodrigue made an ace-high straight against a king-high straight and a lot of chips went in the middle on the river. It was good enough to put the remaining 26 players in the money and vault Rodrigue into the Flight C lead with 1,123,000.

He will return with the second biggest stack on Day 2 behind Julio Delgado’s 1,300,000. Day 2 will get underway on Sunday at noon with all 52 returning players in the money.

We will post the official payout information and seating assignments as soon as they are available.
