Play in Day 1I has begun in the 13th level as players have just returned for a break. As the largest field in the Grand Prix Canada to date there are still a lot of players active, but a few have taken a decent chip lead as the tournament moves along.
First among these is Eric Afriat, who is also certainly the most accomplished player in the field. A WPT Champion, Eric has already managed to build up a stack of just over 193K in chips.
Following Eric are several players in the 150K to 160K range, including Jean-Phillipe Grenier, Douglas Suffel, Remi Blanc, Eli Israel, Marc Antoine Gauthier, and Alexandre Lajoie.
