As the many short stacks fall and tables break around the room, start-of-day chip leader Albert Daher has been moved to the same table as Team PokerStars SporstStar Fatima Moreira de Melo.

And now the two are close to even in chips near the top of the leader board.

Moreira de Melo's latest move up chip count ladder, and Daher's move down, came when a third player made it 3,500 under the gun and she called in position. Daher defended his big blind and all three checked all the way down on an {a-Spades}{3-Spades}{6-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} board, until it ended up on Moreira de Melo after the river.

"Are you going to try to bluff at it?" Daher asked.

"No," she said with a smile, taking a few seconds before turning over the {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}.

The under the gun raiser showed the {8-Clubs}{8-Spades} and Daher mucked, giving Moreira de Melo the pot.
