The field is thinning down and the chips are flying in the late night hours. Frank Simone had been flying a bit under the radar but that is no longer the case.

He just scooped a massive pot and is now closing in on the million chip mark.

Simone already has two Borgata Poker runner-up finishes and is looking to add his first BWPO trophy to his growing poker resume here in Event #8.
