Albert Halfon, one of the largest-stacked players at the end of Day 1, is his table's chip leader with over 250,000.

Mark Kroon and Mansour Alipourfard were at it again in another heads-up pot just before the money bubble burst.
The action came back around to Kroon, who was under the gun preflop, and he pushed his massive half-million-plus stack all in, putting a player in middle position, as well as Alipourfard on the hijack, at risk.
The player between Kroon and Alipourfard folded, but Alipourfard thought he saw a glimpse of an ace as that player mucked. He contemplated the decision for a couple of minutes before mucking himself, showing the 
as he turned in his hole cards.

Pavillion Black has its own newly ascendant big stacks, among them Samkyu Chung. A neighbour of his asked, "Can you just say "a dumptruck load of chips?" for him?" as his 460,000 dwarfs the nearest stack on his table.
His most recent acquisition was a pot of 40,000, won from the small blind. Chung raised to 7,000 in late position, called by the small blind. No bet followed the 
flop, but Chung bet when it was checked to him on the 
turn - 13,000. His opponent made the call. Both players checked the 
river, the small blind showing 
for a turned pair of nines, but Chung the 
for a better pair hit on the river.
