MacPhee last night - short-stacked but happy
We weren't expecting to at the start of the day, but as it turned out we absolutely smashed the bubble yesterday. 116 players return to the Salles des Etoiles this morning, well inside the money, but there is a whole world of difference between the €15,000 they're guaranteed right now and the potentially life-changing (largely depending on who it goes to, we suspect) €1,700,000 up for grabs for first place.
Nick Schulman is our chip daddy right now after an impressive late surge, but David Sesso, Jean Francois Talbot, Matt Perrins and Sami "LarLuzak" Kelopuro are all hot on his heels, and with the remaining field including Chris Moneymaker, Neil Channing, Vicky Coren and Kevin MacPhee, pole position in the chip counts now does not necessarily guarantee pole position at the end of the day.
Play is due to start in around 25 minutes, so don't be navigating away from this page.
