Event 1: Macchia Takes Out Two With Bullets

$500 + $60 Deep Stack NL (2 Re-entry)    

Another crazy three-way all-in.  Bill Seymour held AK; Alan Haddy held pocket Jacks, and big stack Steven Macchia held the weapons of mass destruction, pocket Aces.  The board came all low cards and Steven continues to add chips to his massive stack after busting two players. 

Bill Seymour started the hand with fewer chips, so he finished in 36th place.  Alan Haddy finished in 35th place.  Both earned $2,713 for their efforts.

34 players remain.  Average stack is now over 1 million.  There are 36.8 million chips in play and Steven Macchia has almost 3.7 million, meaning he's holding 10% of all the chips in play.
