W HIGHROLLER ($5,000)

Zhifan Ye continues to dominate the field with a towering stack of around 290 big blinds, comfortably holding the chip lead as play continues deep into the tournament.

Trailing behind is Abhijith Cheruku, who also sits in a strong position with approximately 190 big blinds, well above the current average stack of 80 big blinds.

With deep stacks still in play, there's plenty of room for maneuvering, and both Ye and Cheruku are in prime position for a deep run. The rest of the field will need to make moves soon if they hope to catch up.
