Let's Have a Dinner Break

Chad Holloway

Level 3 : 150/300, 0 ante

Jack Effel addressing the players in the Main Event

The third level of the day has come to an end, and that means it's time for the 90-minute dinner break.

In case you missed it, Level 3 saw 2004 World Series of Poker Main Event champ Greg Raymer fall to Andy Miller. Raymer outlasted a field of 2,576 players in 2004 to win $5 million and the championship bracelet, and then impressed many the following year when his title defense ended with another deep run, ultimately finishing in 25th place for $304,680.

We also took some time to introduce you to Australian cricket legend Shane 'Warney' Warne, who retired after the 2006-07 series after winning title such as Wisden Cricketer of the Year in 1994, One-Day International Player of the year in 2000, and Test Player of the Year in 2006.

Level 3 also saw poker veteran Steve Zolotow double, bracelet winner Jonathan Taylor hit the rail, 1998 WSOP Main Event champ Scotty Nguyen avoid elimination and MMA star Georges St. Pierre pop a mint.

We'll be back in 90 minutes to bring you all the action and eliminations from the final two levels of play here on Day 1b of the 2013 WSOP Event #62: $10,000 No-Limit Hold'em Main Event. See you then!
