With 160,000 chips, Charles Mohler holds one of the biggest stacks in the room. Most recently, he chipped up without contest. A potential straight hit the turn and he lead out for 6,000. A late position player made it 12,000 and the button went into the tank before folding. It was back on Mohler and he shoved having the late-position player covered. The late-position player folded and Mohler raked the pot.

He contends for the chip lead with dinner break about 30 minutes away.

After busting Event 6 in 11th, Adam Leavy promptly finished his dinner and bought into the Championship. Sitting with about starting stack, he opened the action only to have an opponent three-bet. Levy shoved and the opponent called.

Levy: AcKs
Opponent: AhKh

The flop and turn came TsTd9hTh giving Levy’s opponent a freeroll to the flush. The board completed with the Qd. Levy let out a sigh of relief and shared a laugh with his opponent.

Levy’s stack sits at about 21,000.

Michael Cohen

After beginning the Event 6 restart with the chip lead, Michael Cohen bowed out a bit premature finishing 34th for $1,259. Despite undoubtedly coming up shy of his hopes, the deep run meant Cohen outlasted more than 95 percent of the field.

Rather than get down on his luck, he got right back on the horse and is among the field in the Championship.
