"June $50,000 GTD" (Day 2): The Ever Changing Landscape Before Break

"June $50,000 GTD"
$75 No Limit Hold'em
Level 20 (Blinds 6,000/12,000/2,000)
Players Remaining: 134/1,725


Changfei Cui (Kendall, FL)

There has been one constant since the beginning of Day 2, and that is Mo Majid.  Majid has been the first player to accomplish numerous tournament milestones to this point.  He just became the first player in the field over 1,000,000, and has 1,114,000 neatly stacked in front of him.  A handful of players have coasted to the top of the tournament leaderboard, include Changfei Cui (Kendall, FL).

Cui started the day with just over 60,000 in chips, and was able to manage his way into the money.  Once the bubble burst, Cui began increasing his stack, but it wasn't until he reached Table 11 that his day shifted.  Cui stayed alive by hitting a one-outer on the river to win a 300,000 pot, and hasn't looked back (now sitting with 480,000).

Mo Majid - 1,114,000
Erin Steinberg - 670,000
Andrew Davis - 640,000
Washington Galivanes - 540,000
Changefei Cui - 480,000
Danilo  Parada - 430,000

Players will be taking their second break of the day at the conclusion of this level (Level 20), and will return to blinds of 8,000/16,000/2,000.
