A scan of the field during the break turned up six players with at least 275K in chips, creating an unofficial leaderboard:

1.  David Pelosi  –  394,500  (263 bb)
2.  Geronimo Timerman  –  321,000  (214 bb)
3.  Eric Yanovsky  –  309,000  (206 bb)
4.  Joel Gola  –  296,000  (197 bb)
5.  Ian Cohen  –  293,000  (195 bb)
6.  Michael Vinokur  –  286,000  (191 bb)

We expect the prizepool to be worth more than $4.5 million, with the payouts released later tonight.

Action will continue tonight until the end of Level 10, around 11:15 pm. The WPT Poker Showdown Championship Players Party begins at 10:30 pm at L Bar (across from the hotel check-in desk), and it lasts until 1:00 am, so even players who bag chips at the end of the night will have plenty of time to join the party.
