Tomas Petru came in the day with one of the shorter stacks but had a very nice two-hour run when he returned. He began with 56,500 but went on break with tournament-leading 770,000 stack.

Mike Dentale’s short hold on the lead came courtesy of two coolers to drop down to “only” 526,000 but Asher Conniff continued to push his stack higher, coming back to 505,000.
