The players return from break to begin Level 18, with increased blinds of 6,000-12,000 with a 12,000 ante. With 92 players remaining, the average chip stack is about 507,000 (42 big blinds).

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

1.  Peter Vitantonio  –  1,550,000  (129 bb)
2.  David Meagher  –  1,248,000  (104 bb)
3.  Cricket Agnello  –  1,194,000  (100 bb)

5.  Dave Berman  –  1,007,000  (84 bb)

The 30-second Action Clock by Protection Poker is in play, and players have 30 seconds to make each decision. They have all been given a limited number of non-transferable Time Chips that can be used to extend a decision by an additional 30 seconds.

The field is in the money, with the remaining players guaranteed at least $7,155 each. The next pay jump will be $7,710 for 89th place.
