Reinhardt Rises

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante
Abe Reinhardt
Abe Reinhardt

Abe Reinhardt's been on the steady climb all day and has now moved into the lead in the chase for seats at the final table and the $21,246 up top.

Reinhardt busted Darrin Bracken moments ago, three-bet calling it off preflop with queens against Bracken's ambitious {a-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} to win a 300,000-chip pot, and climb up to lofty heights on the leaderboard.

Klein Climbs The Counts

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante
Jeff Klein
Jeff Klein

The last hour of Jeff Klein's life has been a good one. Perennial contender Klein started the day with just 54,200, but over the past 60-minutes, his stack has ballooned to 415,000.

He's had all the setups, hit every flop, had all the big hands, and now has a lot of the chips as they head into the end of Level 18 with 41 remaining.

"Any Two" Bruce Pace is still running like a God and is also among the biggest stacks in the room.

Stop Me If You've Heard This Story Before

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante
Blake Napierala
Blake Napierala

As usual, Blake Napierala is mowing down the field here at Seneca Niagara, sitting on 430,000 chips and counting.

Among the tournament lives Napierala has snuffed out on his way to the top was that of Jeffery Hobrecker, who squeeqed into the money before getting it in for under 40,000 with a weak ace against the unbeatable Napierala's {j-}{10-}. Hobrecker ran into the run good one way or another and it's over for him as Napierala takes hold of the lead.

There's 47 left now as the post bubble fall continues.

Local Boss Matt Cafarella busted Adam Foster to make a big time move up the leaderboard.

Seneca Killer Silvio DeRubeis got the usual upgrade to first class as well.

Hand-for-hand on the the bubble was about to start half way through this level, but someone busted on that hand and the rest of the field sounds like a jovial bunch now, all in the money, with no delay.

Pisa On The River!

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
Steve Pisa
Steve Pisa

After checking down the flop with fellow big stack Steve Pisa, Matt Shanahan had {q-}{5-} to the turn on a {q-}{q-Spades}{3-Spades}{2-Spades} board and led for 35,000. Pisa made it 95,000 with a pair of sixes in the hole.

Shanahan shoved for around 165,000, and Pisa called it off, having that barely covered. Down to just two outs, the river came a miracle {6-} for Pisa and he now takes a massive chip lead into the lead up to the bubble with Shanahan out and 69 left.
