Event 1 (Day 1A): Leading Ladies

Level 14 (Blinds 1,000/2,000/300)
Total Day 1A Entries: 158
Day 1A Players Remaining: 32

As the field dwindles (32 players remain), three ladies still stand strong, two of which are looking to bag the chip lead and grab the bonus.  Sophia Pappas was mentioned earlier in the day as a short stack, but turned things around and now has 135,000.  Doing even better is Cynthia Albert (Germantown, MD), who sits with a stack of 140,000.  Albert is not stranger to deep tournament runs, with over $91,000 in career earnings.  Cynthia's biggest cash was actually her first recorded, winning a Ladies Event at Foxwoods in 2006 (for $27,000).  Lisa Hong currently sits with the least chips of the three (50,000), but still has over 25 big blinds.
