UPDATE:  10:50PM

Jamie Gold is surging this night.  When Johnny Chan has you cornered in the hallway trying to convince you to wear ChanPoker stuff, you know it’s been a good day.  He has the chiplead at $6.7MM with 49 players remaining.  Eric Freiberg is 2nd with $5.9M and ten players have $2.5MM or more.  Chip average is at $1.78MM, and they’re supposed to play down to 45 by the end of tonight.  Look for some great stuff to come up soon.
