Flight 1B Entrants: 409

Average Chips: 116000
The final stretch of this flight has begun, with less than three levels to go.
The biggest current stack is Greg Himmelbrand’s. He just got away from nines in a strange spot where the General said “Merry Christmas!” and shoved 25,000 over the raise and a flat. Surprisingly, Nhan Cao then shoved his remaining chips in, getting a fold from Greg but a call from pocket eights in the field.
The charismatic General did not really mean Merry Christmas when he got it in. Cao, on his left with crossed arms, sucks out hard after the inexplicable shove.
Improbably, Cao got the near quadruple with an optimistic 
, beating the General’s 
and that middle pair when a ten fell on the river.
Himmelbrand saves some chips by folding the nines. He has 380,00. Daniel Chan on his left is also healthy with over 260,000.
Wang on 1 is up to 350,000 keeping pace.
