Sammy Smith booked entry into the event through a $145 satellite and with a $20,000 guarantee on the first-place prize, he's looking to run it up big time.
He picked off a fairly sizable bluff making top pair on an ace-high board to jump up to the top of the counts already and is off and running with the chip lead as Level 2 begins.

As expected, it's a slow start half way through Level 1 with a steady stream of late-comers at the cage signing up.
The board is up to 28 entries and counting with registration open until the start of Level 7. As deep as they are to start, another 40-70 entries are expected to trickle in as the early levels move on.
