Mellor storms to the chip lead

Michael Mellor has been moving along all day with a near-average stack, but since the last break he has managed to chip up to almost 190K to take the chip lead. Just a little behind him is George Caragiorgas – among the leaders all day – who has chipped up past 165K. Meanwhile, the leader at the last break, Roger Thibault, has lost a few so although he’s still in fine shape, he’s no longer in the top 2.
