Level 11: 1,000/2,000/200 Ante

Robert “Carwash” Williams bagged the chip lead in Flight E after busting Joe Gale on the bubble. Williams maneuvered his way through the 72-entry tournament and eventually accumulated 192,500 chips by the time the tournament played down to the final seven.

While he leads his respective flight, he’s fifth in the overall counts. All players trail the 217,500 chips of Flight D’s Clinton Bowles.

Complete chip counts through Flight E:

Level 14: 2,000/4,000/500 Ante
Players Remaining: 7/72

With eight players remaining in Flight E of Event 6, Joe Gale moved all in olding and Robert “Carwash” Williams called with . The flop came safe for Gale, but Williams spiked a queen on the turn. Gale got no help on the river and was officially the flight’s bubble boy.

For Gale, the bustout was a touch ironic. He was on the opposite end of the spectrum in one of the series’ premiere events just a few days ago when he busted Abbey Daniel on the bubble in the $130 Deep Stack tournament.

Flight E is now down to the final seven players and concluded for the evening. It appears Williams will bag the chip lead. Complete combined counts will be posted shortly.

Level 7: 400/800/100 Ante

Cards are back in the air following the first break in Flight E of Event 6. The clock shows 67 players registered with late registration/unlimited re-entry available until 2:15 p.m.

As of now, the tournament’s chip leader appears to be Chad Freedman of Miami. Freedman’s 12,000-chip starting stack turned into about 55,000 over the course of the first six levels and he’s off to a nice start heading to the 400/800 level.

Event 6 of the Coco Poker Showdown offers a bonus payout for each Day 2 a player advances to after their first. Participants are permitted to play any and all starting flights and those who advance to Day 2 more than once forfeit their smallest stack(s) in exchange for a payday equal to the value of the tournament’s minimum payout. These payouts will be processed on Day 2 after the prize pool is finalized.

No one has yet claimed the prize to this point, but four flights remain including today’s 11 a.m. (late registration/unlimited re-entry available until 2:15 p.m.) and tonight’s 6 p.m. installment.
