Level 17
: 2,500/5,000, 500 ante
Roman Korenev has been quietly and aggressively amassing an empire on one of the end tables. The Russian pro has passed Matt Berkey for the chip lead and is just under the one million chip mark.
Korenev has a plethora of final table finishes amounting over $1.5 million in live recorded earnings. He has yet to win a recorded live event but with four major tournament final tables already reached this year and ten over the 2016 campaign, it is just a matter of time until he breaks through. Keep an eye on him as the event progresses.
