Updates on Some Notables, Elky Continues to Climb
Niveau 15
: 1,500/3,000, 500 ante
After starting the day filling up most of the room, Event #20 has been dwindled down to just one section in the Amazon Room. Some of the notables still remaining include Bertrand "Elky" Grospellier, Barry Greenstein, Kenny Hallaert, Jessica Dawley, and Federico Butteroni. Hallaert came into the day with a large stack and has continued to build on it, while Elky found himself all in earlier and needing a runner-runner flush to stay alive, but has since started the climb to the top.
