Scott Tuttle is sitting pretty with a stack of just over 100,000. He’s at a fun action table where one of the other players has been generously buying rounds of beers.
Tuttle gave PokerNews a brief word between hands on how he got his chips.
“People going all in when they shouldn’t mostly. Ace-king when I had nines and made a good call. It’s a shove-fest.”
THE GIANT has earned its name. With 1,629 entries in the inaugural event, THE GIANT generated a prize pool of $488,700 in just Day 1A.
245 places will pay out with 245th place taking home $557.
There will be a total of five day 1's for THE GIANT so your shot at turning a low buy-in into big bucks is not gone, there are four more starting days to get that gold bracelet and WSOP glory.
