A pair of players who at one time or another have held the chip lead today just squared off as they try to chase down the new man atop the mountain.

Approximately 100,000 is in the pot on the turn after Serkan Avci check-called a flop bet from Abdurahim Caliskan on a board of Spade QDiamond 3Spade 2.

The duo then checks the Club K turn before Avci leads out for 77,000 on the Heart K river.

Caliskan thinks briefly but then folds his hand to send the pot to Avci.

Despite his latest win in this pot, Avci along with Caliskan are both looking up at the stack of Bacs Mate who was recently spotted with 705,000 chips to lead the final 58 players in the field.

Bacs Mate – 705,000 (141 bb)
Serkan Avci – 380,000 (76 bb)
Abdurahim Caliskan – 200,000 (40 bb)
