Causa's current total live earnings are $16,589, and he's already guaranteed to double that wherever he finishes here as all the players still in the tournament are guaranteed at least $17,597.
Thai Ha was chip leading for most of the day on Tuesday, and he's just behind Causa currently with a stack of 4,095,000. Other notables still in the field are Timothy Miles, Day 1e chip leader Kurt Jewell, and 2010 Main Event runner-up John Racener.
Today the final 32 players will play down to a final table in the Amazon room. Play will restart in Level 29 with the blinds at 30,000/60,000, with a 10,000 ante. There will be a 15-minute break after every two levels, and a 60-minute dinner break after Level 34, the sixth level of today.
