There were no runaway leaders found during the break, a lot of players hovering in 200K territory, but we had two players trying to pull away.

Erick Espinoza leads the field last with 275,000 while Itzak Shulmaister is not far behind with 271,000.

There isn’t long to catch those two with only 52 players remaining and 27 advancing to Day 2. Time to make some moves.
