I just took a break from mowing the yard to check my messages, Padilla called at 7:05 with the news that at the break he is up to $149,000 and that he's still in the top 25. Looking at the Card Player blog entry from the same time, the chip counts show that the leader has $253,000. Like a golf tournament the list only shows notable names and I don't recognize any names > $149,000 aside from Chip Reese. This is incredible.
