James Barnett, the 2021 champion of this event is sitting with one of the largest stacks in the room.

In a recent hand, he opened to 7,000 in middle position and got called by the big blind.

On a flop of 8?10?4?, the big blind led out for 5,000, which after a moment of pause, Barnett raised to 13,000.

The big blind thought briefly then released his hand.

Meanwhile, defending champion Katie Kopp is also still in the field with a 20 big blind stack.
