The players returned from break to begin Level 13, with increased blinds of 2,000-4,000 with a 4,000 ante.

A scan of the field during the break turned up three players with at least 800K in chips, plus one more knocking on the door, to create an unofficial leaderboard:

1.  Dan Bekavac  –  904,000  (226 bb)
2.  Marcos Exterkotter  –  817,000  (204 bb)
3.  Justin Liberto  –  814,000  (204 bb)
4.  Bradford Corner  –  796,000  (199 bb)

With approximately 490 players remaining from a field of 2,010, the average chip stack is about 205,000 (51 big blinds). The final 252 players will finish in the money, earning at least $5,650 each.

There will be a 90-minute dinner break after Level 16, around 6:35 pm. Action is scheduled to continue tonight until the end of Level 20, around 12:30 am.
