Matthew Durand has been in the game for many years. We missed his ascent to the top of the leaderboard, but heard the echoes of a surreal pot, too big for this blind level. We can expect Durand to be very active with this new army, and to have no pity for his opponents.
Here is our actual top ten, with 3 levels to play before qualification:
