Bigger Stacks Emerging

Mark Vos has the largest chip stack in the room, but unfortunately for him it's made almost entirely of 25 and 100 value chips. He's on about 15,000.

Ola Brandborn has over 60,000.
David Colclough: 40,000+
Pascal Perrault: 44,000
Paul Christoffersson: 70,000
Nicolas Levi: 50,000

Moneymaker Doubles Up

Moneymaker raises 1,200 from under the gun and is called in three spots.

The flop comes:

{5-Spades}{9-Hearts}{2-Spades}

Moneymaker bets 2,500 and gets one call.

Turn comes:

{Q-Hearts}

Moneymaker moves in his remaining 7,600, and after a very long time his opponent calls.

Moneymaker shows:

{K-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}

Opponent shows:

{10-Clubs}{10-Spades}

Moneymaker stops the slide and is just over 20,000.

Chip Leader

Rafael Comas
Rafael Comas
Our current chip leader appears to be PokerStars online qualifier Rafael Comas, who benefitted earlier from being gifted a lot of Chris Moneymaker's chips. He's sitting on close to 50,000 at the moment.

90 Players Remaining

Italian star Luca Pagano just went out with {A-Spades}{K-Spades} versus {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs}, all in preflop.

We are playing to the end of Level 8 today.

Registration is actually still open for Day 1B, which is likely to have a bigger field of over 200 players. So the total prize pool for the event is likely to be around two million British pounds, which equates to over four million dollars.

Kimber Doubled Up by a Now-Struggling Lodden

Jeff Kimber
Jeff Kimber
Jeff Kimber and Johnny Lodden get involved in a blind-on-blind confrontation. Flop comes:

{10-Hearts}{K-Spades}{9-Diamonds}

Lodden bets, Kimber calls.

Turn: {7-Spades}

Lodden bets and Kimber again calls.

River: {5-Spades}

Lodden checks and Kimber moves all in. Lodden very reluctantly calls and shows:

{K-Clubs}{7-Clubs}

Kimber shows the nut straight:

{Q-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}

Lodden is now on 11,000 and feeling the pinch.

Moneymaker in Trouble

Chris Moneymaker is riffling mostly air at the moment, as his chips continue to leak away.

Opponent raises 1,500, Moneymaker reraises to 4,000, and the opponent moves in. Moneymaker dwells up and eventually folds. His opponent shows {10-Hearts}{J-Hearts}.

Moneymaker is clearly frustrated and tells the table he folded {A-Diamonds}{9-Spades}.

He is now sitting on 7,000 in chips and is feeling the pinch with the blinds about to go up.
