Just before the break, Chris Moneymaker found a way to get back to 20,000 in chips again.

"I was getting back to 20,000 one way or another," exclaimed Chris Moneymaker as PokerNews walked by his table.
Apparently the 2003 WSOP Main Event champ and HPO Ambassador got it down to 10,000 on his second bullet and shipped it in with the hopes of either doubling or heading to the cage to fire a third before the dinner break and end of the re-entry period.
Details on the hand were not available, but the gist of it is Moneymaker doubled.
