Dan O'Brien is still down quite a bit from the start of his day, but he's way up from where he was at just a while ago. O'Brien got knocked down to just 2,800 chips and has mounted an impressive comeback since then.
Just now O'Brien limped after which Eric Ethans raised to 12,500 before O'Brien shoved for 42,300. Ethans went into the tank for quite some time, but eventually he folded his cards. O'Brien now sits on 58,000 chips and he's a lot more comfortable as we're getting closer and closer to the money.
