The next player out will take 45,000 dirham. The overall winner will walk away with the tidy sum of 1,000,000 dirham.
Sylvain Neyroud is currently the leader with 16,000,000, giving him a huge chip advantage over the rest of the field. The closest to him in terms of chips is Christophe Beyer, who has 11,480,000.
In third place is Gonzalo Serrano with 8,615,000, followed by Ewen Trevidy in fourth with 7,810,000. Luis Cabello rounds out the top five with 6,300,000 chips.
