Event 10: Blinds Up - Already!

$300 + $50 Deep Stack Semi-Turbo NLH (2 Re-entry) 

That's Turbo for you!  Blinds have already increased to 50/100.  The number of active tables has also increased to 31.

The ten seat at each table is left empty and that's where the initial re-entering players will be seated.  So far, there haven't been any.

Henry Porcaro is here from Warwick, NY.  He likes to come play tournaments when he can.  He likes the $300 + 40 buy-in and feels it give him good value for the money.  His strategy is to play conservatively and try to avoid re-entering, but if he's got the goods, he's going to push hard. 

He wants to accumulate chips early while other players might be playing a little loose.  Henry says it is like two tournaments "at first, you have to survive...then you try to make some money".
