Another two levels are in the books are the field is on a 20 minute break.
We recently watched Phil Hellmuth play one whole orbit. Not much went on, but we will give you a rundown of each hand.
Hand One: We started the orbit with Hellmuth two off the button. In fact, he had just arrived at the table and was greeted with hellos and adoration from his table mates. He folded this hand pretty quickly, while clicking away at his iPhone - apparently tweeting the following.

Hand Two: Another fold, folded by, "There's gotta be less than 200 left," Hellmuth said to nobody in particular.
"Nah, seems about right," the player to his left replied.
"Bet me!" snapped back Hellmuth. He got no action.
Hand Three: Hellmuth opened up the pot to 200. Another player then three-bet to 1,000 and Hellmuth quickly folded.
Hand Four: "How many get paid?" Hellmuth asked the table. He got the answer and then, along with five other players, committed 500 in chips to see a 
flop spread on the felt. One player bet 1,000 and Hellmuth folded.
Hand Five: Hellmuth was the first player to bring it in during this hand, raising it to 500. None of the players called. "I was expecting you to raise," Hellmuth said to a player on his left who he seemed friendly with.
Hand Six: Two players committed 200 before Hellmuth three-bet to 600. The player on the button cold called, along with both of the other players. The four players then checked on the flop and turn of a 
board and then one player led for 1,000 on the river. Hellmuth folded and the bettor raked in the pot.
Hand Seven: Hellmuth quickly folded and kept clicking away at his iPhone.
Hand 8: The iPhone continued getting more action then the poker. Anther fold.
Hand 9: Fold, ending Hellmuth's orbit with a small loss.

We've located some lesser known players in the field that have amassed a stack.
John Racener recently busted a short stack when Racener held 
and his opponent held 
. The 
was about as good as Racener could hope for as he raked in the chips and sent his opponent packing.
