Daniel Moriarty is right on her heels with 430,500 and Sebastian Marquez rounds out the top three Day 1B chip stacks with 409,000.

Jackie Liu was one of the first players to cross the century chip mark and she has kept the pedal to the metal. Liu is now sitting behind a mountain of 350,000 as we approach the final color up break of the night.

She will still have her work cut out for her if she wants to catch Day 1A chip leader Mark Rabizadeh who bagged 547,500. “I just want to bag more than Mike Rossitto” Liu joked.

Rossitto put 354,000 in the big on Day 1A and Liu will have just one more level left to accomplish her goal.
