Play has just resumed in level 7, following the first break of the day and the end of the late registration period. A late rush to the cashier brought the total number of entries up to 184, putting slightly more 5.5 million in chips in play.

Two players, Andreas K and Line St-Pierre, jumped out ahead of the field in the early levels to amass the only six-figure stacks in play at this point. But they have their work cut out for them if they hope to stay ahead of the pack, as there are still over 140 players left in contention.
