Don't Call It a Final

Good afternoon and welcome back to the near-empty Amazon Room - near-empty but for 73 players unbagging and stacking their chips.

That's right, this was meant to be down to a final table already but instead here we are at Day 3 with 73 players remaining. We're well inside the money now which is a good start, but we are hazarding a guess that we won't be playing down to a winner today. No official announcement has been made, but we reckon they'll play 10 levels or to a final table, whichever comes first, and then come back tomorrow to finish it off - if there's room for them once the Main Event kicks off.

Anyway, we still have a tournament going on here, is the upshot of all that. James Mackey is our giganto-stack going into the day - he currently has around a two-to-one chip lead over the next guy. But this is no limit, and anything can happen...
