Steve Olivier (Miami, FL)

After four days of play...and eight full flights, Steve Olivier (Miami, FL) would bag enough to make him the overall Day 2 chipleader (495,000).  Olivier is an accomplished Florida-based tournament player with over $19,500 in live earnings.  He is coming off his strongest year of tournament poker, recording (6) cashes worth $15,343.

Olivier has increased his stack since returning to play today, and continues to separate himself from the rest of the field.  He's now sitting with over 600,000, but will find himself with new tablemates in a short while, as he's seated on one of the outer tournament tables (the first to break).
