$150 No Limit Hold’em (Re-Entry)

Day 2: 1 pm Thursday
Blinds 2k/4k/500 ante
16 Flight B Players Remaining

Oliver Arcand (Orlando, FL via Montreal) is the overall chip leader after bagging an impressive 255k (64 bb) in Flight B. That’s well ahead of Chris Carlson’s Flight B second place stack of 139k and Flight A chip leader Kaleb Hanshaw’s 190k.

“I had a couple of good hands,” said Arcand whose biggest pot involved a little luck. He held AK against pocket Jacks, but quad 7s on the board put Arcand’s Ace kicker in play to win a 100k chip pot.

Arcand earned himself a $1,100 seat into Event 9 (June 8-9) along with two days off before returning for Thursday’s Day 2.

A total of 35 players advanced from Flights A & B.
