$570 Deep Stack NL Hold’em (Re-Entry)
Level 14: 1,200/2,400 with a 400 ante
Flight E Players Remaining: 30 of 161

The clock is paused with 10 minutes remaining in Level 14 and tournament staff is wrapping Flight E action. Action began at 11am with a field of 161 entries and the clock currently shows 30 remaining. Onder Ekinci and his 300,000 chips will go down as the chip leader following a double knockout late, but Jeff Boulais and Steve Pellingra will bag monsters as well.

Boulais topped the counts following the second break while Pellingra ran into his stack after coming out on the winning end of a quads versus fullhouse battle. Both players claim over 250,000 chips and will be heading to Day 2 with a top 10 stacks — at least for now.

A ton of notables are likely to advance from the Flight E field including reigning defending Winter Poker Open Championship winner John Templeton, John Holley, Vitor Coelho, Charlemagne Benjamin and David Tuthill.

Complete chip counts will be posted within the hour.
