Day 1A Final Chipcounts

Jerry Siemienas grabbed control right after dinner break in the first starting flight of America's Poker Tour's $1100 Main Event Day1A at Majestic Star in Gary, IN. Siemienas was the first player to 100,000 and he never looked back.

Daniel O'Connor made a late run at #TopStack, closing just 6.5BB behind the chipleader as 12 players advance from Day 1A on to Sunday's Day 2 (starting time TBA).

Among the players who came out for 1A but did not find an end-of-night bag was defending champ Alex Ziskin, Roger Campbell, Craig Casino, Zal Irani, Marvin Duckman Karlins, Roger Martin and Andrew Rubinberg.

We hear there's going to be a sighting of HPT's tournament director Jeremy Smith in tomorrow's Day 1C, but before we get too far ahead of ourselves, let's give you the chipcounts of the Day 1A final 12.
