goboboy has a massive chip lead in the 5k event worth 442k for first place.

doyle, bavid degenamine, and another guy are playing 4k-8k mixed and sitting with close to a million each.

if you have never seen over a hundred 5k chips stacked up it is when sweet sight to behold

also, less cool, but still cool, freddy deeb playing with about 100k + in the HL area

Sounds about right for a Bellagio event, the winner also gets a WPT Championship seat.

not sure haven't been over to BR in over an hour.

bert boutin was playing in BR at the other table, but highly doubt he sits with doyle and david

I'm going to venture to guess that it looks like 100 $5 chips, just different color.

Oh wait, I have seen that many, actually seen over 4 million in cash on a table cuz I've dealt it before.
