MacPhee Adds to His Stack

Level 7 : 200/400, 50 ante

The action passed around to Guillaume Diaz in the cutoff and the Frech youngster raised to 8,000. The button folded, but Kevin MacPhee wasn't letting his opponent steal his small blind and raised to 2,700. The big blind passed and Diaz sent his cards into the muck.

Hanowski Passes Through 100K Barrier

Level 7 : 200/400, 50 ante

Germany's Martin Hanowski has somehow accumulated 114,500 chips and is almost certainly our chip leader here. Hanowski could have claimed the big stack of British pro Tom "hitthehole" Middleton because Middleton was sat to hanowski's direct right and is no longer there.

After an open to 800 from middle position, Dylan Linde three-bet from the next spot to 2,300. The big blind made it 5,425, and the original opener jammed for 22,200 total. Linde got a count and then moved all in as well, covering his last opponent, who folded.

Linde: {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}
Opponent: {k-Clubs}{k-Spades}

The {q-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{3-Hearts}{5-Spades} board was clean for Linde, though the big blind said he folded nines. Linde's certainly among the leaders now.
