Level 9 : 300/600, 75 ante

According to Ryan Laplante's Twitter feed, the man from Minnesota has 370 physical chips in his stack, which when added together equal 47,000. This is enough to see Laplante top our current chip counts, but as he says himself, there is a long way to go.

Ryan Laplante @Protentialmn

Have over 370 physical chips at this point. :o Doesn't guarantee a min cash, but it looks pretty. :) #WSOP23 http://t.co/Ev7ljjnl9DJune 09, 2014

Level 9 : 300/600, 75 ante

The action passed around to Brandon Meyers on the button and he raised to 900. The small blind folded. Scotland's Niall Farrell took a peek at his hole cards and rested them in front of his chips before three-betting to 2,700.

Meyers asked for confirmation of the bet amount before putting an additional 5,000 into the middle. Farrell had seen enough and mucked his holding.
