Stack Check
Play has resumed after the dinner break and with late registration remaining open until level 11 (the last level of the day) the number of entries has increased. There have now been 156 Main Event entries, with 121 players still in action.
The man leading the charge is Hong Kong's Winson Yau, who has padded out his stack still further and is sitting pretty on a stack of 155,000. Yau's next closest rival is one-time frontrunner Zhongcai Peng, who has a stack of 132,000 with the rest of the field some way behind and not that many other players over the six-figure stack mark.
Korea's Jeho Lee has dropped some and is sitting on a stack of 45,000, and Hong Kong's Ben Lai has also given some back and is sitting with 40,000. Lai's fellow countryman and tablemate Carson Wong has stacked up and is sitting with 70,000.
Other notables with chips include Thailand's Phachara Wongwichit (50,000) and Phanlert Sukonthachartnant (35,000) and both Mauro Francolini and Bart Luyckx are running well on their second bullets, with stacks of 57,000 and 40,000 respectively.
OPC champion Xiaobo Zhou has run his small stack up slightly to close to 27,200 with fellow OPC final tablist Chuanshu Chen also still in action with 49,000 and World Series bracelet winner Preston Lee has around 46,600.
