New Chip Leader Emerges
(Just before the break)
Gilberto Castillo opened to 22,000, but was re-raised by a player in middle position to 70,000. On the button, Nicolas Cottin re-raised all in with the biggest stack of the bunch. Castillo called all in for 200,000, the middle-position player folded, and the hands were revealed.
Castillo: 
Cottin: 
The board came down 
to give Castillo the huge double up.
