Big Stax 500 (Day 1B): Going Up
Players are now in Level 12, with blinds going up to 1,000/2,000/300 (408 total entries). This period in the event is definitely moving time, as players with below average stacks are sitting around 20-25 blinds. The race for the chip lead bonus is too close to call at the moment, but the number to beat (791,000) is far from everyones grasp at this moment.

Level 11 (Blinds 800/1,600/200)
Total Entries: 407
The action was picked up on the river at Table 49 in a hand between Jeffrey Spence and Staffan Lind. The board was J 10 J 4 7, and after Spence checked, Lind would fire out a bet of 20,000. Spence would check-rasie all-in, making it another 40,200 for Lind to call (50,000 in the pot). Lind would think for a few moments before folding. Spence is making the most of what he said was the last bullet, and is now over 100,000.

Level 9 (Blinds 500/1,000/100)
Total Entries: 390
At Table 55, Paul Spitzberg announced himself all-in and Michael Borovetz made the call. Borovetz said, "I'm on a draw," as he tabled his hand. The flop was already out (3 5 9 rainbow), and once Paul saw that his A 3 was ahead of Michael's 6 7, he said it was the best news he could hear. Spitzberg's grip on the hand would get a little better when he turned a spade draw, taking away some of Borovetz's outs. When a non-spade seven hit the river (Borovetz would make a pair to win), it would send Paul walking away from the table.

Justin Liberto (Baltimore, MD) has been showered with Tweets and texts since chopping the Big Stax 300 earlier in the week. The Tweets keep coming, but the subject matter has switched to him being the chip leader after Day 1A of the Big Stax 500. Liberto bagged 791,000 to end the night, so the bar is now set pretty high for players in the following starting days. Day 1B will begin just after 11:00am, and the live coverage of the event will commence at that time.
