The players have just returned from their second break of the evening, as they grind it out through 14 levels of play tonight. The action continued at a hectic pace prior to the second break, despite the fact that the late registration and re-entry period ended at 10:15pm. Everyone knows that two starting flights remain and, given the format – unlimited re-entries and extended late registration – most seem prepared to fire as many bullets as needed to run up a huge stack for Sunday’s Day 2.
As we enter level 9, a handful of players have managed to accumulate more than twice the current average:
| First Name | Last Name | Chip Count |
|---|---|---|
| Francois | Gagne | 133,000 |
| Elvira | Popescu | 113,700 |
| Sasan | Mehrabian | 102,000 |
| Jacques | Bigonesse | 128,000 |
| Sebastien | Proulx | 96,100 |
