Falling like flies

There are 24 players left and we are playing tonight until we discover who are the eight that will comprise tomorrow's televised final table.

Among the players that are not Ram Vaswani, Theo Jorgensen, from Denmark, is leading the charge with about 420,000. Mark Boudewijn, from Holland, who has just appeared on our radar with a monstrous stack, is also in the mix. Of course, "Battering" Ram is going through this field like a knife through butter.
