Shaun Davis

Courtland Twyman and Shaun Davis were the two big stacks at the previous break and they are still the top two, although they’ve switched spots and Davis has a lot more chips.

He is now the frontrunner with 335,500, while Twyman remains very comfortable at 227,500. Arlen Veitia is the closest to catching either with 210,000 with a few teasing the 200K mark.
