The chips are flying tonight and Event 1 down to the last six tables. Even with the average stack hanging around 1 million, those are good enough for 25 big blinds.

Jon Borenstein continues to move up the counts while others are falling. He hit the 2.5 million mark at the start of Level 25 though he shipped a couple hundred K to a neighbor in a bad beat double up.

Event 1 is scheduled to play out today but more likely it will hit the 3am hard stop and return tomorrow. Unless this pace keeps up, then we might see a $140,000 payout.
