Champ: Chip Leaders

$2,500 + $200 Championship Deep Stack NLH (Re-Entry)

 Fouksman, Chip Leader & $3,000 Richer

21 stacks were bagged and tagged and Eugene Fouksman (Brooklyn, NY) is the chip leader with nearly 247k.  He is now free rolling in the tournament as he wins the $3,000 bonus as the Day 1A chip leader.

"I found out about it when I had around 100k," says the CFO who will be back in the office Monday on his poker off day. "I definitely changed my game the last level and half and went after chips."

The top ten stacks all bagged more than 100k and all remaining Day 1A players return for Day 2 on Tuesday.

Short stacks have the option to surrender their chips and use the double play option to play Monday's Day 1B.
