Day 2 ended with play in Level 35, so that's where things will pick up to start today. Blinds will start off at 25,000/50,000 with an ante of 6,250, which means small stack Sikorski starts the day with just six big blinds, while "wellyxx" and "DosPoochies" have just under 12 bigs to kick things off.

The live action gets underway today at 14:00 ET, but there will be cards-up action on a one-hour delay featured on 888pokerTV. David Tuchman and Nick Wealthall will host all the final table action today, and PokerNews will report on delay along with the stream.

"wellyxx" Straightens Out for Double

Level 36, Blinds: 30,000/60,000 (7,500)

"Streusalz" raised the middle to 120k, and "wellyxx" called from the big blind with just 52k behind. Those final chips went in on the {5-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{4-Spades} flop, and "Streusalz" called.

"wellyxx": {8-Clubs}{3-Clubs}
"Streusalz": {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts}

"wellyxx" needed to hit the straight to stay alive, and they rivered it on the {a-Spades}{2-Clubs} board completion.

"wellyxx" Eliminated in 9th Place ($12,500)

Level 37, Blinds: 35,000/70,000 (8,750)

"wellyxx" called a raise in the big blind, leaving only about 40k behind. They shoved the flop of {10-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} but got snapped off by the original raiser and start-of-day leader "james12627".

"wellyxx": {4-Spades}{3-Spades}
"james12627": {10-Spades}{10-Hearts}

"wellyxx" hit a three on the flop, but was still well behind the set of "james12627". The {4-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} turn and river improved them to two pair, but it still wasn't enough to stay alive.

"Beat_You_Bad" Gets Beat Bad

Level 38, Blinds: 40,000/80,000 (10,000)

"Beat_You_Bad" lived up to their name just now as their aces were cracked by the {k-Spades}{j-Diamonds} of "Jan.14". That sent "Jan.14" into the chip lead when they flopped open-ended with a pair, and then tripped up on the river.
