Just 72 Players Remain

Level 6 : 150/300, 0 ante

We've got well over two hours of play remaining and no more than 72 players are still in the hunt. We've lost 267 players already which comes down to 44 players per level. If we take it even further we can say that we lost one player every 81 seconds the entire day! The day has been very rough and fast but we also see a lot of big stacks emerging!

Winner And Losers

After doing another full scan of the room we made sure the following players are doing good or already back at their hotel rooms.

No Money For You!

We received another list from the tournament staff with bust outs. We will keep an eye out for any mistakes but these players will most likely no longer be in the tournament!
