It's All About Benjamin
For the moment, anyway. That's because Benjamin Alcober is currently our new chip leader, having inched over 1 million chips just prior to the last break.
Just now Alcober was involved in a hand versus a single opponent. The pair together saw a 

flop, with Alcober's opponent checking, Alcober betting 14,500, and his opponent calling. The turn brought the
and another check from Alcober's opponent. This time he fired 21,000, and again was called.
Both players then checked the
river. Alcober showed 
for queens, but his opponent had 
for two pair to take a few off the leader.
