Silver Section News: Bloms is Gone; Merrifield Still Leads
![[user169505]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
There are only 144 players left and that means most of the crowd is now squeezed into the Gold section as snug as a bug in a rug. There are just four tables left in the Silver Section and the glaring omission is Viktor Blom. We believe he was vanquished by Todd Boghosian who now has 75,000 chips.
Daniel Negreanu is still in his original seat. His glasses are on so I guess it's time to concentrate. Negreanu has remained stagnate on 31,000. The 2012 World Series of Poker Player of the Year, Ben Lamb, is also in the Silver Section and he is looking ominous; 99,000 for the man known as Lamb. But still riding high and leading the entire field is Steve Merrifield on 135,000 chips.
