We’ve seen a slew of eliminations take place in the past hour here in Event 7, and the field has dropped down to just 34 players. With the average stack at 73.5K, here are the current leaders:

With already 37 players eliminated after 9 levels of play here in Event 7, a few players have jumped ahead of the curve and built some impressive stacks. Although he just lost a decent chunk of his stack right before the break started, Stuart Taylor is still far ahead of any other player in this field. Here is a look at the current leaderboard (and their approximate chip counts):

1. Stuart Taylor – 123,000
2. Terry Papadopoulos – 110,000
3. Edward Martinez – 89,000
4. Alexander Riedl – 80,000
5. Richard Johansen – 69,000
6. Andre Faucher – 68,000

We’ve just begun level 7 here in Event 7 of the Playground Poker Fall Classic, and a few players have already been eliminated. Given the turbo format of the event, we can expect to see a lot of action right from the start, as players are well aware that the structure is favourable for aggressive players.

Now that the starting flights for the WPT Montreal have almost been completed, the rest of the side events in the Playground Poker Fall Classic are resuming. Tonight is Event 7, a Deepstack Turbo ($200 + $20 NL Hold’em) tournament.

The event tonight is capped at 100 players – with Day 1c and cash game action already underway, there is simply no more room for additional tables or alternates to be accepted!

The Deepstack Turbo format is a popular one here at Playground Poker Club – many of our daily tournaments use the format and at least one weeknight tournament has used this format since the club opened in 2010.

With the capped field and the turbo format, the action tonight should be wild – we’ll have coverage from start to finish.
