Kevin Daily is a friend of Playground who comes in often from Vermont to play the weekend tournaments. He may be older than many of the young guns who grind tournaments, but he has every bit as much energy as they do and he certainly loves to play hands. Looking around the room during the 2nd break, his stack has grown to almost 100K, clearly ahead of the rest of the field. Mathieu Fontaine Raposo also is maintaining his momentum and is 2nd in chips.

As level 10 approaches, action should heat up as players have 5 more levels to play before bagging & tagging.
