Stephen Hubbard Leads Texas PLO Roundup Main Event Final Table
The inaugural PGT True Classic Rags To Riches $3,300 No-Limit Hold'em event continued from the PokerGO Studio at ARIA Resort & Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada. Day 1B drew 110 entrants, and leading the field are Daniel Maor and Calvin Anderson, both bagging 1,935,000 in chips.
They both surpass Michael Rossitto (1,840,000), who led Day 1A, to hold the overall chip lead heading into Day 2, where just 24 players remain from the 161-entrant field. Those 24 players are all in the money with a guaranteed $6,000 payday. Reaching the final table will ensure players of $15,000 in prize money, while awaiting the winner is $110,000 in prize money, 110 PGT points, and the PGT True Classic Rags To Riches trophy.
Trailing Maor and Anderson on Day 1B is Terry Fleischer with 1,700,000, Sam Laskowitz with 1,610,000, and Doug Lee with 1,550,000. Anthony Hu was eliminated on the money bubble on Day 1A, but he avenged his sour elimination by finishing sixth overall with 1,205,000. From the 15 True Classic Giveaway winners, two will advance to Day 2. James Anderson finished with 485,000 and Mark Anthony DiBello finished with 475,000. Also advancing to Day 2 is PGT satellite winner Dustin Iannotti with 280,000.
