Hohner is just over 200k with a few minutes remaining before the dinner break and shares a table with Andy Santiago (110k) and early chip-leader Ron Pento, who has lost a bit of ground. Hohner comes into Parx after a cash at the Borgata Summer Poker Open Main Event for $6,402 in the $2500 buy-in event. That score brought his lifetime earnings up to ~$30k as well as some experience in a major event.
Hohner hopes that the Big Stax series plays host to his first major score and is off to a great start to do just that in the 300 Main Event.
