New Chip Leader; Calamusa Already Eyeing Up Final Table

Mike Alonso has dropped back from his peak, allowing Bruno Mandagaran to take over the chip lead with a stack in excess of 300,000. The Frenchman only has two Hendon Mob cashes, both in Morocco, from 2008 and 2009 and is well placed for another one.

Meanwhile, Pierre Calamusa is sitting on a healthy stack of 105,000; just over average. Calamusa is one of only six players wearing the hats gifted to them by Winamax at the start of the day, and we mentioned that to him.

"They are the final table," he said with a grin.
