Big Stax 1500 (Day 1B): Welcome Bach Wach

Level 4 (Blinds 150/300/50)
Total Entries: 248

Level 5 is about to begin, with blinds going up to 200/400/50.  The last time Dan Wach (Boonton, NJ) was here, it was two months ago during the Big Stax V $1,500 Main Event.  Wach continued his solid tournament play, finishing in fifth place for $34,402.  For those who didn't know Wach's past accomplishments, he bested two fields of over 4,000 players a year apart (Borgata Poker Open 2012/2013), to finish runner-up both times for a combined $430,000.

With the 2014 WSOPC National Championship coming to Atlantic City in the upcoming weeks, it's only fair that a one time winner of that event gets recognized.  Ryan Eriquezzo (Danbury, CT) is still one of the stories of this Big Stax series, buying into Day 2 of the Big Stax 300 with six blinds and running it up to a Day 3 finish (17th place).
