Correction
PokerStars has enlisted a new (and quite useful) method of gathering chip counts for this tournament, which has worked quite well thus far, with few exceptions. Kenny Hicks' elimination in our chip counts was one of those exceptions.
The players in today's tournament have each been given a card with a number on it that represents their original table and seat number. Members of the media can then reference a spread sheet we've been provided that matches the player with the code on the card.
The players have been instructed to keep the cards visible at all times, though as we all know, for all its benefits, such a system also has its fair share of flaws -- i.e. players losing their cards, accidentally swapping cards with another player, etc. Though we're not sure quite how it happened, Kenny Hicks' information was somehow mixed with a player who HAS been eliminated, thereby causing the mishap.
We are pleased to report that Kenny is still alive and will in the tournament and is currently sitting with 130,000 in chips.
