Former chipleader Charles Alexandre Sylvestre went from 62,000 to 30,000. I didn't see what happened, but the Canadian is no longer all smiles.
Brazilian model Vanessa Machado increased her stack to almost 13,500. She also knocked back a bottle of Stella Artois while Andre Akkari wandered over to chat her up.
Once Akkari finished his pep talk with Vanessa, he sat down next to fellow Team PokerStars Pro Alexandre Gomes at an empty table. The two Brazilians were worked on by two of the more attractive masseuses in the casino.
Brandon 'ih8pp' Demes (the young American from Tempe, Arizona) moved to Chris Moneymaker's table. His stack topped over 30,000 at one point, but he's since slipped to 9,250. "I made the worst call of my life," he said about how he lost most of his stack.
