Event 1: Early Chip Leader

$500 + $60 Deep Stack No Limit Hold'em (Re-Entry)

Break; Next Blinds: 500/1,000/100 ante  

Papola & Lam

With registration closing after this break, it's time to focus on the big stacks.  Very few stacks are more than 100k, but Johnny Lam (New York, NY) is one of them.

Lam has the chip lead with 135k and has a new neighbor as three-time Borgata trophy winner Jeff Papola (Monmouth Beach, NJ) recently arrived.

Papola has a starting stack of 25k and has Lam to his left.

The floor managers are coloring-up the green (25) chips before play resumes.
