    The action continues at a brisk pace as we approach the second break of the evening. At this stage in the tournament, we are starting to see the disparity between the big and small stacks widen significantly. These disparities often dictate the play, and a hand we just saw offers a clear example.

    With the blinds at 300/600, the action was opened from middle position with a raise to 1.6K. After a call from the cut off, the button and chip leader of the table, Yonathan Moryoussef, put in a raise to 4.8K. The small blind, a relatively short stack, quickly moved all in for 10.6K. The action folded back around to Moryoussef who made the call after some contemplation. The hands were tabled for everyone to see; Moryoussef had King of Hearts 7 of Hearts and his opponent had 10 of Diamonds 10 of Hearts. The dealer swiftly brought out the board: Ace of Spades 3 of Hearts King of Diamonds 2 of Clubs 9 of Clubs. Moryoussef hit his over and added to his already significant stack.

    The next break is in a few minutes, stay tuned for a chip leader update.
