We're through Day 3 at EPT San Remo and Canadian Christopher McClung is your new chip leader.

Fresh off his third place finish in the NLH 6-Max High Roller Turbo event at EPT London, McClung will enter Day 4 play with close to a 400K lead in chips over Australia Daniel Neilson.

Day 2 chip leader Joseph Cheong maintained a good pace today, he is Top 5 in chips. Joining Cheong in the Top 5 is Alessio Isaia. Isaia has had a terrific 2011 campaign, he currently sits 6th on the 2011 PTPR Poker Tournament Player Rankings Leaderboard.

There are still a ton of big names still in the field - Lodden, Fox, Veldhuis, Timex. MacPhee, Bach and Selbst are just a few of the name players still out there.
