WPT Bay 101 Shooting Star Day 1a Complete

Wednesday, 18 March 2009

The world-famous World Poker Tour Bay 101 Shooting Star event kicked off yesterday and Hoang Nguyen claimed the top spot at the end of play. A $10,000 chip leader bonus will go nicely on top of any future winnings he may or may not have in the tournament.

A field of 136 showed up for Day 1a and 50 survived to Day 2. John Juanda was among those eliminated by the eventual chip leader, who has a good deal more than his nearest competitor David Pham.

The top ten chip counts are as follows:

1. Hoang Nguyen - 198,300
2. David Pham - 160,600
3. Conner Stockett - 124,500
4. Jonathan Little - 121,300
5. Matt Lessinger - 107,700
6. Faraz Jaka - 95,600
7. Vikaly Yarkov - 87,400
8. Jeff Mince - 80,200
9. Chad Brown - 77,900
10. Glen Cabana - 75,800
