$130 No Limit Hold’em (Re-Entry)
Level 13: 1,500/3,000/400 Ante
Players Remaining: 18/118

Alan Slakman of Coral Springs, Fla. picked up A-K at just the right time to bust the A-7 of Richard Davis and the Q-10 of another opponent. The players got their chips all in preflop and Slakman raked a mess of a pot that surged his stack to about 175,000.

He now leads the way with 18 players remaining. Play will conclude when the field is down to 11 players.
