James Morin continues to get hit by the deck here, apparently turning rags into a straight versus Brett Short to push over 200,000 and into the only spot on the leader board anywhere near Greg Miller.

Soon after, Short got four-flushed to fall even farther below his peak.

In the meantime, sitting at that same table now, Cameron Bartolotta has grinded up to a healthier 55,000, while Alex Visbisky is closing in on 100,000 and wishing he could just bag that now and head on to Day 2.
