After losing a catastrophic hand to Erik Seidel with ten players left, he went from the top of the chip leaderboard to seventh among the eight starting play Friday. Even after eliminating third-place finisher Fabrice Soulier, Mike never had the chip lead until he was heads-up with David, and even then he had to win a pot worth eighty percent of the chips in play.
