Did they shut the choke line? I'm not seeing any oil flowing right now but most of the feeds are very blurry. Can somebody confirm?
UPDATE: Fox News ticket reports that oil flow has stopped

AP reporting oil stops gushing into Gulf for first time since April.

•The middle ram of the Capping Stack was closed; oil flow continues through the choke and kill lines. A leak in the choke line was secured; in process of replacing choke connector. Once new choke connector is installed a leak test will be conducted. (SLB)•If Capping Stack passes pressure testing and can remain closed full containment of oil could be achieved by 18 July; otherwise full containment via the ENTERPRISE, HELIX PRODUCER, and Q-4000 is anticipated 24 July.

even if pressure doesnt hold and they have to release the valve the set up now will allow for full containment
