Chao Back In Front, Lai Wins a Flip

Level 9 : 400/800, 100 ante

Zhang Chao has been busy since the dinner break and has edged back into the lead with a stack of 125,000, while Hua Huan Feng has dropped some chips, but not all that many, to fall to 120,000.

Shan Huang's stock has also fallen, but not by much and he still has an extremely playable 65,000. Another High Roller in the mix is China's Ye Wang, though things have evidently not been going his way as Wang only has 12,000 in front of him.

Player's whose stacks are trending in the upward trajectory include Portugal's Antonio Martins (50,000), Ireland's Mark Gruendemann (41,000) andHong Kong's Alan Lau (38,000) and all are close to average or above with the average stack coming in at 44,500 and change.

Another player who's stack is moving in the right direction after a less than stellar Day 1a is Hong Kong's Ben Lai whom we caught scooping in a pot with {3-Hearts}{3-Spades} with his opponent's cards already in the muck. That pot puts Lai on 52,000.
