Only four tables remain at LAPT8 Panama and play won't stop until there's only one.
Shakeeb Kazemipur, the 20-year-old student from the University of Calgary, has been leading since day 1b and plans to keep it that way. Kazemipur's starting the day with 855,500.
Kazemipur is one of four remaining Canadians in the field. Both Canada and Brazil have four players in the field while the United States and Argentina have five apiece.
While Kazemipur leads the Canadians, Fernando Brunca Garcia leads the Brazilians with 255,500.
Michael Lech leads team USA with 388,000 and Carlos Leiva heads the Argentinians --and is second overall-- with 711,000.
Third overall is Olga Iermolcheva, Ukraine's sole representative in the field. Iermolcheva barely made it in time to register for the LAPT after flying in straight from the EPT11 Grand Final.
Mexico's only player is also the last red spade in the field. Team PokerStars Pro Christian De Leon is starting the day with 180,000 and is now deep in his sixth LAPT cash.
While some players are seeing how far they can take their first LAPT cash, everyone in the field is hunting their first LAPT title.
The clock's been frozen at 8:21 on level 17 since last night and it'll start ticking again once cards hit the air.
