From the Feature Tables
Over here at the feature tables, they actually swapped the two -- the main and secondary -- during the break.
That means we now have the table with Jean-Robert Bellande, Vince Van Patten, and Karina Jett over on the secondary stage.
Meanwhile, the main feature table has a very short-stacked Gavin Smith (currently sitting with 33,000), Michael "The Grinder" Mizrachi, Chris Bjorin, Frank Kassela, and Max Casal. Casal is by far the chip leader of the bunch with just about 1 million now. He's also won all four hands played over here thus far, taking three with preflop raises, and the fourth with a raise after the flop.
Interestingly, Mizrachi does mathematically have a shot at overtaking Kassela for the 2010 World Series of Poker Player of the Year, as the two were just discussing. But very soon that may no longer be the case.
For Mizrachi to win the WSOP POY, he would have to win the Main Event, and Kassela would have to go out here in the next couple of hands -- i.e., not cash. If Kassela cashes, then busts shy of the top 27, Mizrachi could only tie him with a WSOP ME victory.
Kassela is currently sitting with 109,000, by the way. Mizrachi has 112,000.
