Jason Nablo made a set of sevens, getting it in on the flop to crack one opponent's pocket queens and ascend into the chip lead.

With just 55 players left play is now hand-for-hand on the money bubble. However, the bubble boy figures to be Richard Wyssling, who failed to turn up today and has been blinded down from some 76,000 to 4,500 now.

Carmine Santoro
Carmine Santoro

Welland, Ontario, Canada's Carmine Santoro busted one player making two pair against a flopped open-ender and holding.

Now, after busting another couple of shorter stacks, he's managed to build a chip leading stack as the only player past the 400,000-chip mark.

Just a few spots shy of the money, Santoro is the man to beat right now.
