Players are on their final 20-minute break of the day.
The battle at the top of the leaderboard has been tight for a while but recently Istvan Kinal from Hungary has emerged to challenge the top guns. He has just been moved to David Docherty’s table, another of the big stacks.

We arrived to see PokerStars Team Pro Felipe Ramos bet the turn of a board reading 
for 3,300 and his opponent laying it down.
Nothing too surprising in that but he added that pot to his increased stack and is currently playing 47,000 which is right around average. Let’s see what the Brazilian can do on a cold January night in London from there.

Brazilian Team PokerStars Pro Felipe Ramos made a big laydown a couple of hours ago and since then he has been grinding his stack. We haven’t seen anything go to showdown but there have been a few judicious shoves over raises to keep his head above water, demonstrating one of the many skills you need to get to the top in poker.
Ramos has 20,300 at a time when the average is 46,090
