Welcome to Day 3 of EVent #28: $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em. A field of 28 remain in contention for the World Series of Poker gold bracelet and Steven Merrifield leads them all with 1.025 million in chips. He'll be joined by Andy Frankenberger, Owen Crowe, Tyler Kenney, Lars Bonding and Matt Graham in quest for victory.
Things are quite hectic here in the Rio and especially in the Amazon Room. Right now, the tournament staff is working on breaking some tables from Event #32: $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em in order to clear room for this event's restart. One thing in for certain though, with 28 players left we're going to be in for a very long day.
Action is scheduled to kick off at 4:00 PM PT. The goal is to play to a winner, but if we play ten levels first, the tournament need a fourth day due to the ten-level rule. The cards will be in the air shortly so stay tuned!
