Players Remaining:  25 of 243

With 26 players remaining and 25 getting paid, Flight B went into hand-for-hand mode while still in Level 15. A bunch of hands later and Level 16 now in play, a big hand finally developed on Table 21.

With the flop reading , the big blind player checked and Aaron Thivyanathan bet 10,000 from under the gun. The big blind moved all in for 152,000 and Thivyanathan called with a similar stack.

Thivyanathan:
Big Blind:

Thivyanathan was ahead with top pair kings and the big blind needed to catch a club or a backdoor draw to double. The turn and river finished the board to give Thivyanathan two pair kings and jacks. After counting down the stacks, Thivyanathan was indeed the bigger stack and the remaining 25 players were set to bag their chips for Day 2 on Sunday at 11 am.

Onder Ekinci held on for the Flight B chip lead with 413,000 while Thivyanathan moved up to second with 386,000.

We will post the full chip coun list as soon as it is available.
