Play Has Come to an End

It's almost 3am and play has come to an end here in the Brasilia room. As expected from the first day of a deep stacked limit split game, there have not been that many casualties. Around 133 players out of the 179 starter remain and will come back tomorrow at 2pm.

David Benyamine is the holder of this title and is in great shape to mount a serious defense. Threats to his title include, who we think is overnight chip leader, Chris Bjorin on 134,400 and Scott "BigRiskky" Clements on 130,800.

The blinds and antes will come in to play a lot more tomorrow, so we will definitely be reporting on many exits and try our best to get to a final table before 3am.
