The players have just returned from their fourth 15-minute break of the day, and within minutes of the resumption of play the field was reduced to a final table of 10 competitors.
During the pause in the action the chips were tabulated, and it was concluded that Robert Turcotte has taken the lead with slightly more than 1,000,000 chips. Trailing substantially behind Robert are Eric Portelance, and Maurice Cyr, who have stacks of 670,000 and 655,000.
Congratulations to all 10 players who made it to the final table.
