Event 1: Two More Out the Door

$500 +$60 Deep Stack NLH (Re-Entry)

Mark Baatz got his chips in good with pocket Jacks against pocket 7s, but a 7 on the flop meant the end of his tournament.

Start of day 2 chip leader Ryan Merrigan has been on a roller-coaster.  He was all the way down to 51k, then doubled up twice to get back to 400k.

In the end, he got his chips in with QT, but ran into Kings.  Ryan finished in 79th place ($1,681).  Not bad for the 164th alternate!
