Ryan Dodd was at the top of the chip counts for much of the night and he is still playing a monster stack of 700,000.

A new chip leader has emerged and he happens to be seated to Dodd's direct left.

Naveen Chettipally has caught fire after the dinner break and he's sitting behing a mountain of 850,000.

There's plenty of potential for a massive pot on table four if these two big stacks elect to clash.

A player in early position raised to 15,000 and two players called. Ryan Dodd re-raised to 55,000 from the small blind and the early position player called.

With the action back on Mike McGuinness he moved all in for about 200,000 and Dodd re-shoved all in. The early position player folded and the hands were shown.

Ryan Dodd: {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}
Mike McGuinness: {q-Clubs}{j-Hearts}

The board ran out {a-Hearts}{10-Spades}{7-Clubs}{4-Spades}{3-Diamonds} and Dodd paired his ace on the flop to score the knockout. There are now just 54 players remaining and Dodd looks to be the chip leader with 700,000.
