The players were away from the tables at dinner break and we noticed Adam Jaffe and Zachary Eichenbaum’s seats were empty while seat 8 was stacked over 350K. Turns out Charles Johnson won a four-way all-in to send three players out, they he went to dinner with the chip lead.

We are back underway after the dinner break and registration is closed for Flight B. The last flight of the Championship starts tomorrow at 11 am and they should easily surpass the $500,000 guarantee.
