Blanco still in the lead

Strangely, Cristiano Blanco has held the chip lead for almost the entire day so far. This is despite falling back slightly to around 40,000.

His lead is unlikely to last much longer however as there are an endless number of stacks between 20,000 and 30,000.

Steve "All-in Stevie" Devlin is on 30,000
Alberto Spigolon, who knocked out Annette Obrestad, is on 28,000
Mika Paasonen has 20,000+
Bertrand "Elky" Grospellier has 21,000
Patrik Schulz has 25,000
