As players returned from their second break of the evening, there was one that was far and away above the rest, and that player was Ron S. Because many of the small denomination chips have still not been chipped up, Ron barely has any place in front of him for all of his chips. However, he doesn’t mind – that’s the kind of problem you want to have in a tournament.

Ron has steadily climbed the rankings, moving from fifth place into the chip leader position over the last two hours. Can he continue on his run? We’ll see! Good luck to him and all of the remaining 107 players still working their way towards the finish line.
