Moments before the break bell was heard, Robert Amireault (title picture) won a huge pot, which is usually what happens when you flop a flush and your opponent flops a straight. He is now sitting behind an immense stack, 448K deep. His closest pursuers are Sergio Iannetti (385.5K) and Mitchael Ferguson (344.5K), the winner of last night’s $500 + $100 + $500 50/50 Bounty!
The field is now down to 30 players, and is closing in on the money zone, which has payouts for the 23 best results. Play resumes at 5K/10K/a1K with an average stack of 148K, and the last 3 tables are being formed right now.
