The balance of power has officially shifted at Table 17. Joshua Hood began the day with nearly 400,000 chips and the overall lead, but he’s now missing in action.

Eric Riley is the one stacking up the chips, and it appears he was the one responsible for Hood’s demise. And he’s still on the warpath. In the most recent hand, Scott Katelan got his last 150,000 into the middle with pocket queens from the small blind, and Riley put him to the test with ace-queen in the big. The flop came queen-high with two low cards, but Riley went runner-runner wheel to earn another knockout.

He’s now the chip leader and the first player to amass a seven-figure stack.

Eric Riley – 1,050,000 (175 bb)
Joshua Hood – Eliminated
Scott Katelan – Eliminated
