So Long Sorel
Mizzi was in the tank for more than a minute before putting in the fourth bet, a raise to 39,000. Seth responded by nonchalantly tossing a short stack of brown (10,000) chips into the pot, enough to put Mizzi all in. The player in between the two got the message and folded.

Andy Seth, the chip leader to start the day, once again appears to be the chip leader with approximately 515,000 chips in his stack.
Chewy Picks Up Some Chips
Flop: Lichtenberger bet 8,000, and his opponent called.
Turn: Chewy fired again, this time 16,500 and got another call.
River: Both players checked. Lichtenberger tabled and scooped the pot with his rivered four-flush. Fake it till you make it, baby. He was up to 235,000 after the hand.
Chips Ahoy
Dwyte Pilgrim - 270,000
James Mackey - 245,000
Nam Le - 420,000
Bob Lauria - 170,000
170,000 is a lot of chips at this stage of the tournament, but not when there are three massive stacks at your table. Luckily for Lauria and the other (shorter) stacks on Table 64, they're the next table to break.
