Players have returned to the ballroom and everyone is chasing Hector Chevalier at the moment. He began his day with a 20,000 starting stack like everyone else but he’s managed to run it up to nearly 80,000 in the first two hours.

Chevalier’s biggest tournament score came in a $1 Million GTD event at the Borgata when he took home $93,000 for a third place finish. He’d probably like a repeat of that finish here this weekend.

Chevalier is followed closely by David Griggs with Brian Phillis and Larry Kusch rounding out the list of players over 60,000.
