Some Chip Counts at the Break

While keeping track of some of the notable players throughout the break in the Gold and Silver section of the Brasilia room, we came across 2001 WSOP Main Event Champion Carlos Mortensen sporting a massive stack of about 30,000.

We also noticed that short-stacked Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier's seat is now vacant, so we can assume that he has hit the rail.
