First Break of the Day: Timoshenko Builds Monster Chip Lead
The first level of Day 6 of the Main Event is in the books. Play began today with the final 68 players trying to accumulate enough chips to reach the November Nine. After two hours of play, 12 of them have already been eliminated, and will have to wait for another year to reach that goal.
The chip leader heading into break is Yevgeniy Timoshenko, who vaulted to the top of the leaderboard when his full house beat a smaller full house. He has since extended his lead, becoming the first player in the tournament to hold more than ten million in chips, at the time over three million ahead of his nearest challenger.
Tyler Cornell was the first player eliminated today. His pocket jacks ran into Michiel Brummelhuis's pocket queens. Brummelhuis ended up turning a set, and Cornell busted in 68th place for $102,102. Eleven more players followed him to the rail before the first break.
Steve Gee, the only player remaining from the 2012 Main Event final table, got off to a fast start by winning four of the first nine hands at his table. The only remaining former Main Event champion is Carlos Mortensen, who has held steady so far today and currently has about 2.3 million in chips.
Players will return to their tables in 20 minutes. Stay tuned for updated chip counts and live updates when play resumes.
