Chris Smith took down Event 1 in the inaugural Ante Up Jamul San Diego Series – the $40,000 Guaranteed multi-flight $300, earning $7,977 as the final four players brought the tournament to its conclusion.
He’s back today for Day 1A of the $100,000 Guaranteed $550 Main Event, running deep and is one of the room’s top stacks at 150,000 with 45 minutes left in Day 1A play.
This is a Best Stack Forward tournament, so all players who bag-a-stack tonight have the option to try and earn a bigger stack tomorrow for their Sunday Day 2 play.
