Incredibly, young gun Alexander Kostritsyn has opened up a huge gap between himself and the rest of the field, with nearly double the amount of chips of the second-placed David Oppenheim. In this sort of event, where six of the games are of the fixed limit variety, and against an all-star lineup, this is a massive lead at this stage of the tournament with 31 players left. We know that Kostritsyn plays an aggressive game but can he keep up this sort of momentum all the way until the final table?
Alexander Kostritsyn - 1,650,000
David Oppenheim - 890,000
Mikael Thuritz - 880,000
Robert Mizrachi - 826,000
Vladimir Schmelev - 820,000
