Play has just resumed in level 7, following the first break of the day and the end of the late registration period. There are 139 players left in contention; most of the players who made an early exit opted to re-enter, bringing the total number of entries to 181, including 32 re-entries.
The play became faster and more aggressive as we approached the break, allowing some players to take advantage and run up their stacks to several times their starting amounts. Three players managed to triple their starting stacks to rise to more than double the current chip average. But there is still a long way to go in this one so there’s time for everything to change.
