Players are taking their first break of the day, and will be returning to Level 21, and new blinds of 6,000/12,000/2,000 (260,000 chip average).  The field has almost been sliced in half since the beginning of the day (2.5 hours ago), as the structure began to catch up to some of the smaller stacks.  We are seeing a number of larger stacks emerge across the field, many of which were names that started the day in the middle of the pack.  John Womack (Lauderhill, FL), who looked as if he was going to have a short day, managed to recover from the downward spiral he experienced to start the day.  He's now up to 480,000, and has actually increased his Day 2 starting stack by an even 100,000.

Three of the four top stacks to start the day have trended in the right direction, as Jonathan Bodden, Hector Pacheco, and Donald Gordon all find themselves at the top of the leaderboard.

Hector Pacheco - 670,000

Donald Gordon - 625,000

Juan Rodriguez - 605,000

Paul Novick - 550,000

Jonathan Bodden - 530,000

Trent Smith - 530,000

Jon Womack - 480,000

Shelley Smith - 380,000

Raminder Singh - 355,000

Steven McKoy - 325,000
