Johnny Chan going for 10th bracelet, Hellmuth contemplating suicide

[Daffy]

Chan is second in chips at final table of $2500 pot limit holdem.

[Russ McGinley]

Thanks for registering to tell us this. I predict a Hellmuth run-in, HHH style.

[ed8383]

He won't win it. There won't be a 10th bracelet winner this year that is my prediction!

Chan just doubled up on Kassela when Chan's queens cracked Kassela's Aces, hes the chip leader now.

1 Johnny Chan $ 635,000
2 Phil Laak $ 265,000
3 Richard Osborne $ 160,000

Go Johnny!

I'd love nothing more than to see him win his 10th bracelet just so we can see how Hellmuth responds when asked about it.

[Howard Treesong]

I really, really wish Chan were wearing a JOPKE hat.

[Army Eye]

ESPN must be sick about this

[Rocaix]

It's heads up between Laak and Chan now

[grass]

wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[The T.A.]

Brunson is near the top of the heap in the 5K PLO event, too. Wouldn't it be a hoot if Brunson scored a 10th bracelet...
