With the field reduced to only two tables, Ricardo Cavallieri now holds a commanding chip lead over the 50/50 Bounty.
The money bubble came and went fairly quickly tonight, as Cavallieri dispatched two players at once to help pad his chip lead. Every decision is magnified in these late stages; the pay jump to $250 for nineteenth place to $4,968 for first will make all the players in the field consider all options before putting chips in the middle. The chip average provides nearly 25 big blinds so things could still change quickly.
Here are the current chip leaders:
| First Name | Prénom | Last Name | Nom | Stack | Tapis |
|---|---|---|
| Patrick | Skrodzki | 440,000 |
| Ricardo | Cavallieri | 620,000 |
| Nicolas | Laliberte | 443,000 |
| Francis | Rivest-Beadoin | 301,000 |
| Donald | Lee | 300,000 |
