With about 25 players having hit the rail in the first level, there’s plenty of chips finding new owners early. Just when it seemed a handful of players were taking control of the event, a new leader emerged — Tom Nguyen.

Nguyen is a two-time Seminole Hard Rock Tampa tournament winner, 46-time casher and owns nearly $275,000 in career earnings. With a stack of 425,000, he’s all but guaranteed to steamroll his way into the money today and pad his accolades.
