Players in Event 4 are enjoying a short break while the tournament staff races off the T500 chips. During this time, we went ahead and did some chip counts:

Table 54

• Seat 1. Michael Aflalo – 1,250,000
• Seat 2. empty seat
• Seat 3. Richard Sysko – 521,000
• Seat 4. empty seat
• Seat 5. Dejan Kovinic – 460,000
• Seat 6. Isaac Maurice – 99,000

Table 61

• Seat 1. Sean Windover – 515,000
• Seat 2. Jeremy Chandler – 176,000
• Seat 3. Felix Sides – 416,000
• Seat 4. Eric Gariepy – 305,000
• Seat 5. empty seat
• Seat 6. Tina Frascarelli – 232,000

Michael Aflalo was already the chip leader before flopping a set of tens and eliminating two other players (who were both holding decent stacks). He is now sitting on roughly 1.3M, or 33% of the chips in play, with 9 players left in the field.

Only 2 tables remain in Event 4, which means the field is composed of just 12 players. The final table will start when 7 players remain.
