With a whopping 170,000 in chips, or nearly four times the average stack, Noel Atherley is the current chip leader.
Atherley has been a chip magnet for most of the day, and he recently took out one of his table’s short stacks when he called a shove with A-J and found himself up against K-8.
The flop gave Atherley two pair, but he had to sweat a straight draw for his opponent on the turn. The river was a brick, and Atherley added another 25,000 to his count.
