When play fell down to 6-handed, the players asked to TD to pause the clock so they can discuss a deal. The decided to give the two chip leaders $4,000 each, and give $3,500 to the other 4 players. 5% has to be left for the eventual winner, as well as the Playground Poker Spring Classic bracelet, so the tournament is not over, but we should expect to see play open up a lot in the levels to come.
Here are the prize distributions:
- Christopher B – $4,000
- V. L. – $4,000
- Michael Aflalo – $3,500
- Jonathan Rivest – $3,500
- Daniel Kwon – $3,500
- Alexandre Fortin – $3,500
Congratulations!
