Randy Pfeifer has skyrocketed into the chip lead and is closing in on the one-million chip mark now.
Pfeifer told PokerNews most of the chips were collected without showdown, including one hand where he picked up kings and pushed all in preflop after a series of raises, forcing a fold. His opponent showed jacks.

Tensions are rising as each pot takes on more significance.
In the meantime, the room was hushed as Kyle Badger just leapfrogged Mike McKeever on the chip counts.
McKeever raised it up and Badger defended his big blind going heads up to an 
flop. Both players checked and Badger checked again on the 
turn. McKeever led out for 35,000 and Badger flatted.
Badger checked again on the 
river, but when McKeever bet 100,000, he pushed all in.
McKeever scowled and folded.
