Don't Call It a Final
![[user46392]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
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...
Level: 18
Blinds: 4,000/8,000
Ante: 1,000
Mamuzic Bamboozled
Ivan Mamuzic was all in and at risk preflop against Kevin O'Connell at Table 309. Mamuzic's 
was racing against O'Connell's 
and fell behind when the dealer flopped 
. Neither the turn (
) or the river (
) were jacks, and Mamuzic was eliminated.
So Long, Sobral
Viktor Wessman raised to 18,000 from under the gun and the action folded to Henrique Sobral who moved all in for 55,000 with the button. The blinds released and Wessman called.
Wessman: 
Sobral: 
The board ran 
and Wessman's fours held eliminating Sobral from the tournament.
Celling Himself Short
Viliamu Amitoelau opened for 20,000 in mid position and Benjamin Cole called in the big blind. Stephen Cellucci shoved form the small blind and Amitoelu folded, but Cole, after a period in the tank, made the call.
Cellucci: 
Cole: 
Board: 
Cole had Celucci covered by just a single 1,000 chip, so he essentially doubled up as Cellucci hit the rail.

Love Shak
Dan Shak opened to 22,000 from under the gun and Viktor Wessman flatted in middle position.
The dealer fanned 
and Shak continued for 38,000. Wessman folded, and Shak was shipped the pot chipping up to 228,000.
Socrates Drinks the Tournament Hemlock
Dan Shak opened to 22,000 and Alfonso Amendola called on the button. Socrates Philippou in the big blind made it all in for 115,000 more and Shak folded - according to our field reporter, eating something that involved chicken and looked delicious. Either way Amendola made the call and they turned the cards over.
Amendola: 
Philippou: 
"I'm in trouble," said Philippou, reasonably.
Board: 
As it turned out both players made a flush but Amendola's was higher. Philippou was out, and the Amendola stack got bigger.
