After 2 hours of play, Joel Palmer has managed to accumulate 68,500 chips. The closest stacks are in the low 50s, meaning he is now comfortably sitting on top.
The registration period is now closed, and 243 players have taken part in this 5th of 6 flights. It is by far our biggest participation so far. Tonight, we should see the guarantee being reached in the first level of play, and after that every player coming in will be extra gravy on the prize pool.
