Our tenth event of the Spring Poker Classic was a massive success yesterday, as we had a grand total of 515 entries, creating a prize pool of over $150,000. We will have 51 players coming back today for the restart, and Shan Jing leads the way with 488,000. Not far behind him is Peter Hengsakul, who finished in 5th place in the $200,000 Guaranteed finals last Monday after his pocket aces were cracked by eventual champion Thanh Le. Other notables who will be coming back today are Ross Tesser, Victor Kruglov, Bobby Suer, Eugene Tito, and Ly Tran.
The action picks up again at 2 PM today, and we will be here providing all of the updates until a winner is decided!
