Flight C was close to getting down to four tables when SHR Tampa regular Brandon Byars was in danger of getting it there. He was down to 36,000 and found in the big blind. He got his chips in against the button with and looking good.

The board ran out to put him up to 75,000. Much better shape with the last level on the horizon.
