UK Poker player tops early chip count in PCA
With the field anticipated to break all sorts of non-US field size records after a day 1A entrance of 669 players, UK player and Pokerstars qualifier, Wayne Bentley, is head and shoulders above the rest of the field with a stack size of 329,500 chips from his starting stack of 30,000, a chip lead of over six figures to his nearest competitor!
Bentley doubled up early thanks to an aces versus kings confrontation and continued to run well, having won a big race and made other big hands such as flopping a set of eights against Bill Edler’s Kings to take his competitors 100k stack.
There are plenty of big names following Bentley in the early chip counts, last year’s winner, Poorya Nazari being one of them. Let’s hope that Wayne’s form continues into the later stages and that he is joined by some other Brits after the completion of day 1B. Hopefully this is a sign of things to come for a hotly anticipated year for UK poker on the worldwide stage.
