78 Players Left in World Series of Poker Main Event After Day 6
Published on July 16th, 2010 4:28 am ESTTheo Jorgensen will begin Day 7 of the World Series of Poker main event as the tournament chip leader when action resumes on Friday afternoon.
Jorgensen managed to finish Day 6 with a monster stack of 9.3 million chips, which is nearly 2 million chips more than the next closest competitor, Michael “The Grinder” Mizrachi.
Speaking of “The Grinder”, Mizrachi is continuing his unbelievable run at the 2010 World Series of Poker by going deep in yet another event. Mizrachi, who won his very first World Series of Poker bracelet earlier this summer in the $50k Poker Player’s Championship, has now put himself in an excellent position to make a run at the main event title.

Theo Jorgensen - 9,300,000
Michael Mizrachi - 7,535,000
John Racener - 7,200,000
