Votkin Dominates
With less than two levels to go before we call it a night in the Main Event, Aki Votkin remains in the lead – he’s now up to a frankly terrifying 192,000 with his nearest rival (fellow Finn Olli Ikonen) lagging way behind on 128,300. That puts Mr. Votkin in the overall chip leader spot of the entire tournament, well ahead of Day 1a chip leader Puja Heino’s 152,700, and there’s still over an hour of play left on the clock.
