The players are well into level 10, which is the final level to be played in Day 1a of the PokerStars Canada Cup Main Event. After a gruelling 10 hours of poker there are just 52 players left in the action.
There have been some big eliminations in the last level or so, but none bigger than Jonathan Duhamel, who tweeted about his experience:

Other recent eliminations of note include Players Club member Chris “d0r1t0s” McClung and, perhaps ironically, the 1st and 2nd place finishers in the High Roller event that finished earlier today – Samuel Chartier and Ami Alibay – were both eliminated one after the other in the Main Event.
