A player in early position raised to 700, and Stan Quinn defended his big blind to see a heads-up flop.

On the last hand of the last level, we watched JC Tran drag himself another nice pot.

face-up onto the felt, but his second-best hand sends another pot to Tran.
We'll count him down after the break.
The field has been sent on their first break of the day following the first three levels of play.
We didn't catch the action, but we just chatted with Robert Castoire, winner of the 2011 WSOPC Southern Indiana Main Event, and he has been eliminated. He couldn't catch a break and said it was a miserable day of poker
They seem to be arriving two-by-two, and we've just welcomed another couple notables to the field.
Andrew Barber earned a second-level cash here last year with a 23rd place finish, and he's just been handed his stack of 20,000. Also entering the field is Joe Mongkol-ua-aree, last year's ninth-place finisher. He's made it easy on us, showing up in the same personalized San Jose Sharks jersey that brought him a deep run in 2010.
