Players have once again taken a short break, which allowed us to update the leaderboard. Maxime Théroux has climbed up to first place after his set of tens won him a lot of chips. He is now the table captain and this tournament’s chip leader and first millionaire.
This Phase 1 is moving closer to its final stint, as only 5 tables are left. Much action is still to come, and no one is stacked to the point of comfort. Even Théroux is just slightly over the eventual 17-player average stack.
We are now playing 6K/12K/a1K, and some big pots are about to be fought for. Here are the top 6 stacks, and some photos of the last segment:
| First Name | Last Name | Chip Count |
|---|---|---|
| Maxime | Théroux | 1,157,000 |
| Jeremy | Chandler | 905,000 |
| Rami | Hammoud | 888,000 |
| Elie | A | 739,000 |
| Gary | Farrell | 694,000 |
| William | Blais | 586,000 |
