Chris Graham

Rochester, NY's Chris Graham will take the chip lead into the second break of the day.

He made sixes full and picked off a bluff in a 40,000 chip pot to climb the counts. Then Graham took it to that next level, getting over 100,000 when he flopped top set against top and bottom pair and all the chips went in the middle. The set held.

In the meantime, locals Budwey Salhab and William Balcom have continued to chip up. They join Graham as the only six-figure stacks in the room heading towards the mid-point of the flight..
