CPPT Main Event (Day 2)
Level 27 (20,000/40,000/5,000)Total Entrants: 282
Players Remaining: 6
Chip Average: 1,400,000
After the elimination of Sharman Olshan in 7th place we saw a few decent sized pots develop that chipped up both Dilipkumar Patel and Fred Paradis, but for the most part it's been an extremely quiet last hour or so.
That's not surprising though as mostly all of the remaining players are "deep stacked" with no one stuck playing a sub 10 big blind stack or anywhere near the "danger zone".
Tournaments usually run in peaks and valleys and we saw that yesterday when we were on the bubble for close to two hours and then saw over a dozen players get eliminated in the next two levels.
The same "stop and go" pace has happened today as we got down to our "unofficial" Final Table in under an hour and have hit a bit of a pause in the action as these players know what is at stake going forward.
The updated chip counts as players return from break, as well as how many big blinds they are playing, are listed below:
- Jay Feingold - 1,800,000 (45 BB)
- Farnk Sgambato - 600,000 (15 BB)
- PJ Caruso - 1,025,000 (25 BB)
- Dilipkumar Patel - 1,850,000 (46 BB)
- Fred Paradis - 2,450,000 (60 BB)
- David Grandieri - 725,000 (18 BB)
