Chris Moorman leads. The Englishman was thrust out front following a hand against David Williams and George Clyde-Smith. Moorman held pocket eights on a jack-high flop which outlasted Clyde-Smith’s straight draw and Williams’ ace-jack (which he folded earlier in the hand). The result was a stack of 312,000 for Moorman.

Behind Moorman the tournament is beginning to take shape with several big stacks emerging.
