Raminder Singh

After some craziness in the first three levels, the remaining Event 1 players took their first break of the day already guaranteed some cash. Tournament staff pulled the purple 500 denom chips out of play and added the 25K chips into circulation.

We went looking for big stacks and found a little surprise. Raminder Singh had a nice chunk to start the day but he was suddenly sitting behind a castle.

As the dealer explained while they were away, Singh caught a huge pot when his set of aces beat a set of kings to push him up to 1,027,000. That is good enough for the lead with Trang Trun sitting in second place with 907,000.
