Camel Has The Chips

Keith 'The Camel' Hawkins looks to be one of the chip leaders now with almost 50,000, a stack with which he hopes to exert some pressure.

"With a 10,000 chip stack, you lose a pot early and it's a struggle. But if you double up then you can really exert pressure on people if they're still on their starting stack. Raise to 700, bet 1,100 on the flop and then 2,200 on the turn and they're having to risk their stack. Usually you can't do this until level 6."

Praz Bansi, who is busy grinding away with 6,000 said, "I'm so used to playing with 30,000 stacks that I'm having to remember how to play with 10,000. It's who can adapt really."
