Lucas Greenwood Eliminated in 12th Place ($33,476)

Lucas Greenwood - 12th Place
Lucas Greenwood - 12th Place

Lucas Greenwood moved all in for 238,000 under the gun, and in the small blind, Taylor McFarland made the call.

Showdown
Greenwood: {a-Diamonds}{q-Spades}
McFarland: {a-Spades}{j-Diamonds}

Greenwood was hoping for a queen to give him a little piece of mind, but the {k-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{3-Spades} flop was queen-free. At least it was jack-free as well. Then the turn brought the {10-Hearts}, and suddenly, Greenwood was hoping for anything at all but a queen. Of course, that's when the {q-Diamonds} decided to show up. "F@*k!" shouted one of Greenwood's friends on the rail, as the queen made Broadway for McFarland. Greenwood was eliminated in 12th place, making him the first casualty of the day. McFarland is up to 1.2 million.

Delacruzing

Jeffrey Papola opened to 36,000, and Darren Elias on the button and Orlanda Delacruz in the small blind both called. Delacruz checked the {k-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} flop, and Papola made ti 52,000 to go. That folded out Elias, but Delacruz check-shoved for an extra 174,000. Papola was forced to fold, and he sunk to 340,000. Delacruz is up to 510,000.

Papola Pays Off Elias

The flop fell {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}, and Darren Elias bet 36,000. Jeffrey Papola called on the button. They both checked the {9-Hearts} turn, and when the {q-Clubs} came on the river, Elias went back to betting. He made it 106,000 to see a showdown, and Papola paid the price. Elias tabled {a-Spades}{4-Spades}, and Papola could only much as Elias chipped up to 1,085,000. Papola slipped to 395,000.

Little Green(wood thanks to) Men

On a {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{4-Spades} flop, Lucas Greenwood checked, and Men Nguyen bet 60,000. Greenwood called to see the {k-Spades} on the turn. He checked, and Nguyen moved all in for 168,000. Greenwood called with {q-Clubs}{9-Clubs} but was drawing dead against Men's {k-Diamonds}{j-Spades}. The river was a meaningless ace, and Men doubled to 530,000. Greenwood was crippled down to 100,000.

Sheng Tank

Taylor McFarland raised to 39,000, and from the cutoff, Paul Sheng reraised to 95,000. Action back on him, McFarland four-bet shoved for 850,000 total, meaning Sheng would have to call all in for about 600,000. Sheng took a few minutes, and then a few more, and then just a little longer to decide it wasn't worth a call. He slipped to 620,000, while McFarland is up to 950,000.

Chip Flap

All of the players are in their seats and unbagged their chips and restacked them before play began. When Evan Panesis unpacked his chips, he told the floor that he'd had more at the end of play last night. Though he's sure he was short-changed, the floor said there is nothing they can do since he sealed the bag himself and reopened today on his own. They told him that he must of miscounted, and that's the end of the issue as far as their concerned.

The Third, and Final Day

WSOP bracelet

Today, on Day 3, one of the 12 remaining players in Event #32 $5,000 No-Limit Hold'em / Six Handed will rise above the rest and claim the gold bracelet.

Will it be Mark Radoja, our chip leader entering the final day? This is his seventh WSOP cash but he has never won an elusive gold bracelet.

Will it be Erick Lindgren? Lindgren knows how elusive the first bracelet can be, finally winning his in 2008. He has final tabled this event before, finishing runner up to Jeff Madsen in 2006.

Will it be Men "The Master" Nguyen? He already has a bracelet here at the 2010 series and is racing neck and neck with Phil Hellmuth for most WSOP cashes.

Will it be Jeffrey Papola? Papola was at a short handed final table just FOUR days ago where he finished second to William Haydor. It would be an understatement to say that Papola is on fire.

Or will it be someone from the rest of the field?

Anthony Roux and Darren Elias are both very tough players, Lucas Greenwood, Bruno Launais and Taylor McFarland are healthy in chips and Paul Sheng, Orlando Delacruz and Evan Panesis have proven their worth by getting this far.

The cards will be in the air at 3 p.m. PST and we hope you follow this and every 2010 WSOP event here at PokerNews.com!
