Day 1b of Event #1: $600 Deepstack Kick-Off at the Borgata Winter Poker Open accumulated a total of 558 entries and when the last chance saloon had closed for business it was William Siegel leading the final 91. The $2,000,000 guaranteed prize pool has now attracted 963 entries in the first two starting flights and is sure to blow past the set guarantee with three remaining flights yet to come at the Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa in the first event of the series.

Siegel saw himself catapult to the top late in the day and that is where he finished by night's end, accumulating a chip lead stack of 461,000. Some other big stacks from Day 1b include Zarko Mandic (408,000), James Liddell (398,000), Martin Matranca (327,000), and Dan Walsh (325,000).

Many notable players bagged up for the night and that list includes Stanislov Angelov (317,000), BorgataPoker.com sponsored pro Dan Buzgon (246,000), Erik Gorman (177,000), Frank Funaro (154,000), Mukul Pahuja (129,000), Julian Miranda (119,000), and Stephen Song (82,000).

That wraps it up for the second of five starting flights with Day 1c underway now so tune in for the PokerNews updates and watch as all of the action unfolds.
