When the field took their second break of the day in Event 1 ($350 No-Limit Hold’em), there were 260 players remaining, with an average chip count around 260,000. (The similarity in those numbers is just a coincidence.)

A scan of the field during the break turned up three players with more than a million in chips, while nobody else had more than 700,000. The blinds have increased to 5,000-10,000 with a 1,000 ante.

Zachary Kessler  –  1,325,000  (132 bb)
Angelo Miele  –  1,310,000  (131 bb)
Pedro Rios  –  1,150,000  (115 bb)

The average chip stack has only about 26 big blinds, so the field should continue shrinking rather quickly.

Action will continue today until the field reaches the final table (which seems unlikely) or 3:00 am EDT, whichever comes first.

Here are photos of the three chipleaders:

Zachary Kessler  –  1,325,000  (132 bb)

Angelo Miele  –  1,310,000  (131 bb)
