Although I do like the Men Nguyen scenario, I'm going to chalk it up to bad chip count guestimating by the Pokernews staff.

The Pokernews Chip Counts are pretty worthless. It's not bad guesstimating, it's just a broken system. Some players are updated often, others ignored. Click on a player's name to see the updates.
Chip leader Eli Elezra has been updated 10 times since the day started.
Daniel Negreanu has only been updated 4 times. He is currently listed at 180K-- he hasn't been that low since 4pm this afternoon, and is currently sitting just north of 300K.
