Pavel Veksler is the only other player with more than a million chips, while accomplished pros Sergio Aido, Ihar Soika and Steve O'Dwyer are also in good shape.
The goal today is to get down to a final table of six, and PokerNews will be right there with you for all your live coverage.

Benhalima dodged a bullet with his pocket kings, and he's now off to a great start on Day 4.
