Vinny Pahuja is up to 275k, which for the time being is the chip-lead among the 13 open tables in the tournament area. He is sitting at a tough table featuring Esther Taylor, Abe Faroni, Jack Duong, as well as early leader Mike Mercaldo.
Pahuja finished 5th in the February 300 Main Event for $20,983 and then backed that up with a solid month in March. He cashed four tournaments at the WSOP Circuit stop in Atlantic City including a win in a $365 event for $13,284. Those recent scores contribute a small boost to his impressive $2.382M in career earnings.
