From what we can tell, Jonathan Duhamel appears to be following his 2010 run to the Main Event championship with a strong showing so far in this year's WSOP. The soft spoken Canadian has built a chip stack of nearly 80,000 and appears to be poised for a real run at his second World Series of Poker bracelet.
During our latest lap around the tournament area, we witnessed David Rood capture three consecutive pots, winning each hand while still trying to stack his chips. His impressive castle now appears to hold just under 200,000 chips, making Rood our leader by a wide margin.

Instead of the usual poker curse that poker bloggers give players, it seems I have had the opposite effect on Jordan Young.
With Bryn Kenney and a second player heading to the rail, we spoke to Young about the hand in which he eliminated both players.
Kenney opened to 3,000, and one player was all in for 1,000. Young made the call holding 
, and two other players joined them to see a 
flop. Kenney continued for 5,500 with only Young making the call as the 
landed on the turn.
Kenney checked, and Young pushed out a bet of 13,500, which Kenney called as the 
landed on the river. Kenney checked, and Young moved all in. Kenney made the call, flashing his 
before making his way to the rail since his top two pair couldn't beat Young's three nines.
As Young was pushed the pot, he moved to roughly 168,000 in chips.
The remaining players are heading on a 60-minute dinner break.
See you back here at 6:35 pm PDT for the recommencement of play.

After arriving back from his hour-long dinner break, Gary Riley looked down at the most pleasant sight a poker player can imagine: 
and another player announcing himself all-in.
Riley made the easy call and was dodging nines after his opponent tabled .
The final board rolled out 
and Riley took the pot, eliminating his opponent in the process.
Three players saw the flop of 
for 3,500 - one of which was Gavin Griffin in the small blind.
The preflop raiser checked as the player caught in the middle fired out 3,500. With Griffin feigning weakness with his quick check, he quickly dashed those thoughts when he made it 8,600 to go.
Both the active players folded and Griffin collected the pot to move to 96,000 in chips.
After the flop fell 
, Joseph Insinna checked to his opponent and heard exactly what he was hoping for, an announcement of "all-in."
Insinna instantly called and turned over his 
, hearing his opponent exclaim "dang it, that's a nice hand sir" while tabling his 
. The overpair of Insinna was far ahead of his opponent's top pair, top kicker and we were down to the last two cards.
Turn: 
River: 
With that, Insinna's pocket pair had dispatched another player from the tournament.
