Total Day 1A Entries: 161

Rocco Luciano (Philadelphia, PA)

Rocco Luciano's schedule during the Big Stax VII series was a little light, but he had a very good reason not to be present.  Luciano's family was growing larger by one, as he welcomed his daughter Gabriella into the world.  He was coming off a series in February when he chopped the Big Stax 300 ($74,094), and took down a side event for just under $10,000 ($200 + 40 Deep Stack Turbo).  Rocco has emerged as the biggest stack before break, sitting with 170,000:

Rocco Luciano - 170,000
George Alberto - 130,000
James Kaplan - 120,000
Ibraim Ibraimovic - 105,000
Sardor Gaziev - 98,000
Chris Csik - 90,000
David Inselberg - 85,000
Joshua Beckley - 64,000
Eric Rappaport - 54,000
Joe Palma - 50,000
