Imagine what Phill Hellmuth would be like if he does somehow manage to win this thing!! I cant see him doing it from where he is but i really hope that he can. Good luck to all those still playing

haha i would love phill hellmuth to wins it from being a huge underdog and he will surely brag about it when he does and I love when he does his arrogant attitude infront of the media and so on. He is a likeable chap so would like him to win but not sure that he will and chip leaders are kind of curse for me! So Afriat will not win!

Eric has a massive lead if you ask me on this point and i'm pretty sure that even it's relatively early in this tournament with a bit of luck he can keep this position all the way to the end
I'm sure BRM will keep us posted on how this event will unfold
