Mackoff in the Lead

Level 8 : 300/600, 75 ante

The tables downstairs must be almost empty as more and more players get moved up into the main area such as Robbie Bakker. Andrew Chen was transferred over two levels ago already and clashed with fellow Canadian Jonas Mackoff in a big pot. Mackoff check-called on the flop and turn of a {Q-Spades} {6-Spades} {4-} flop and {7-} turn before check-raising all in after the {4-Spades} river to take 41,000 off Chen during the entire hand.

Mackoff then busted a short-stack for 15,000 with {Q-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds} versus {2-} {4-} after a {3-} {4-} {5-} flop with two diamonds.

Former big stack Alexander Denisov doesn't have as many chips anymore, though the Russian is still well above average.
