Which Story Line will Come to Fruition on Day Three?

Eric Rodawig looks to capture the title once again.
Eric Rodawig looks to capture the title once again.

There are many questions entering the third and final day of the 2013 World Series of Poker Event #13: $5,000 Seven-Card Stud Hi-Low 8-or-Better. Will chip leader Yuval Bronshtein win his long-overdue first gold bracelet? Can Eric Rodawig repeat his success from two years ago when he this event for $442,183 by defeating Phil Hellmuth in heads-up play? Or will a fan favorite like Gavin Smith, Eli Elezra or Mike "The Mouth" Matusow take it down?

Of course those aren't the only story lines to follow. Tony Cousineau looks to break his infamous streak of 54 cashes (now 55) without a bracelet, though he'll have to do it as one of the short stacks. Similarly, respect Las Vegas cash-game player "Crazy" Marco Johnson is looking for his first gold bracelet, something that would no doubt establish him as more than adept at both cash games and tournaments. The same can be said for online pro Brian Hastings.

Just how well these players do, and how much they take home, remains to be seen.

Late last night we hit the money and saw just four players leave with a payday: Sam Feinberg (24th), Tom Schneider (23rd), Eugene Katchalov (22nd) and Francis Mariani (21st).

The final 20 players will return to action at 2 p.m. PDT, which is about an hour from now. We'll be on hand to bring you all the action and eliminations on the way to crowning a Event #13: $5,000 Seven-Card Stud Hi-Low 8-or-Better champion and awarding the $266,503 first-place prize, so be sure to join us then.
