Final Table Analysis: Hands #41-50

Mark Teltscher = new chipleader
Mark Teltscher = new chipleader
Meet the new boss... Mark Teltscher. He's the new chipleader as he passed the 700,000 mark.

At this point, there are three big stacks (600K or more) and three small stacks (290K and under). The ever patient Howard Lederer is calmly waiting to pick a spot. We haven't heard too much from him, but as the old saying goes... slow and steady wins the race. He managed to outlast all of the internet young guns, while never having a stack more than 250,000 for the entire tournament.
