Donald Gordon (Boynton Beach, FL)

Have you ever been trying to nail something to a wall, and found your finger in the way as the head of the hammer came down towards the nail?  Well that's exactly what happened to Jaime "Thor" Wiegrefe, as his "hammering away" at Table 4 met a roadblock in Donald Gordon.  Jaime's stack, which was once pushing 200,000, was down to 30,000 as well passed his seat moments ago.  He looked at us with a smile and shrugged his shoulders, as to say "easy come...easy go."  Those chips ended up in front of Donald Gordon (Boynton Beach, FL), who now sits as the only player in the field over 300,000.  Gordon is another Isle Poker Room regular, who mainly plays in the "daily" events, and has seen some success as of late.  With only one full level of play remaining, Gordon looks to be the favorite to bag the chip lead, but has his biggest competition sitting right next to him.  

Shelley Smith is over 250,000, having increased her stack by over 150,000 since returning from the last break (less than an hour ago).  The two haven't been involved in any pots against each other, but that's likely because Smith just joined the table a few minutes ago.
