Molnar is best known for his high stakes cash game grinding, but he certainly knows his way around a tournament table. It would take a brave person to bet against Molnar going all the way now that he\u2019s so deep stacked.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Jamie O\u2019Connor<\/strong> is another player to look out for when play resumes at 19:05 GMT on February 16.
