Angel Lopez was the last player in the Top 3 during the color-up break with ~103k. He has been really pushing for a Final Table in 2017 with three deep runs ending around three tables remaining. In May, he finished 28th in the Big Stax 1100 Main Event for $3,052 as well as two other Top 27s (Sugarhouse and Borgata) on the year.
In total, the consistent Big Stax performer has ~$39k in career earnings with his deepest Big Stax running being a 12th in the 500 Main Event last August. Lopez has been knocking on the door for a big Final Table for some time and will be a player to keep an eye on going forward in this series.
