Welcome to Day 3

Hello and welcome to Day 3 of the DeepStacks Poker Tour Western New York Poker Championship! Today, we've moved from the Seneca Niagara Casino Events Center to the gorgeous final table set in the Bear's Den, where six players will play down to a winner and a top prize of $71,827.

The tournament began with 217 players, including several high-profile members of Team DeepStacks, none of which were able to advance to Day 3. Among the pros who made the trek to the Cataract City were Michael Mizrachi, Mike Matusow, Karina Jett, Randal Flowers and Robert Croak. Mizrachi was the chip leader going into Day 2, but he busted in 14th place on Saturday evening.

Every member of the final table is from Upstate New York, making the tournament a true Western New York Poker Championship. William Vogel is the chip leader going into the day, but he's followed closely by Sal Procopio. Those two players have. Also taking his seat today will be Steve Przybyl, who has made his second straight final table at a $1,500 DeepStacks event at Seneca Niagara Casino.

Action will get under way here shortly, so keep it locked in to PokerNews.com for all the updates from the final table here in Niagara Falls, New York.
