Two of the top three chip stacks in the room are right next to each other. At table 6 (also the aforementioned Liz Lieu table), seat two is Douglas Miranda, who recently busted Alan Le to add another 30K to his stack. Seat three is Jason Gonong, who has been up near the top of the leaderboard for the last couple hours.
