Final Table - Day One
That's no typo, it just goes to show how play starts out at a final table where everyone begins with equal chips and 75 big blinds. The action has been reduced to slow needling at the start of this final table.
Sondre Goes Back to Back
Sondre Sagstuen picked up a pot off of David Mosca when he turned up the A
J
on a board of A

. Mosca mucked his hand when Sagstuen showed the dominant quad aces. Sagstuen then picked up the very next pot with a pair of tens. That sequence of hands vaulted him to the early chip lead.
Movers and Losers
No one has jumped out to a large chip lead yet and most of the stack are hovering around $300,000. The two exceptions to the rule are David Baker who has $200,000 and both Sogstuen and Ishak Noyan who have both eclipsed the $400,000 mark.
