Though it's not always easy to tell in a room with over 1,000 players still looming, it would appear at the moment that the new chip leader is Dave Shober.

As we approached the table, Shober's stack already stood out among his tablemates but he was active in a hand as well.

There looked to be about 10,000 already in the pot of a {7-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{10-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{q-Clubs} board and Shober had bet 5,750 on the river. His opponent had a decision and eventually made the call. Shober tabled {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} for a set of tens and his opponent nodded in submission, mucking his cards.
