Day 3 Started
We've arrived at the third and final day of the World Series of Poker Circuit Horseshoe Bossier City Main Event presented by Southern Comfort 100 Proof. Just 11 players remain to play for a seat to the National Championship, a gold WSOPC ring and $133,000. Leading them all is Jeff Gibralter with 1.569 million.
Joining Gibralter at the top of the leaderboard is Jay Diaz (1.118m), Cliff Fisher (1.085m) and Pete Rios (1.047m). Chasing them are Abraham Araya, Jim Parker, Jesse Maupin, Mark Burford, Jeff Siler, Seneca Easley and Michael Sanders.
Interestingly, Araya, Burford and Sanders all have played at a WSOPC Main Event final table together before. They all were at the 2012 WSOPC Choctaw stop where Araya took down the title.
We're going to play as long as it takes today to crown a new champion. Cards will be in the air promptly at 12 p.m. CST and follow all the WSOPC action live on Pokernews.com.
