We caught up to Tuan Le in a pot with Zheng Hu on a board of 
. There was already more than 120,000 chips in the pot. Le was first to act and he put out a huge bet of 65,000, which was roughly half of his remaining stack.
Hu didn't think too long. "How much is that?" He asked. "Is it this much? Is it this much?" he asked Le twice pointing to the stack of T5,000 orange chips he had in front of him. "Alright nice hand," he said tossing in the call.
Le flipped over 
for the nuts and that was good to take down the pot.
"Nice flop." Hu said to Le after the hand.
"Yeah," Le replied. "That's one of the better flops for my hand."
After that hand Le is close to 340,000 chips and looks to be the chip leader at his table.

"All in… re-all in… re-all in!"
So intoned the dealer over at Table 368 just now as John Coffman pushed all in for 29,400, Yueqi Wang called all in for a little less, then Steve Gee reraise-shoved over the top, the three all sitting side-by-side in seats 1 through 3. It folded back around, and when the trio tabled their hand all showed pocket pairs:
Coffman: 
Wang: 
Gee: 
"I'd like to use my one time now," said Wang as the dealer spread the 
flop. The 
then appeared on the turn, and while Coffman began calling for a club, a standing Gee said "no, no… gimme a red card!"
The dealer then burned a card and delivered the river… the 
! It wasn't a club, but Coffman was delighted nonetheless as the ten preserved his tournament life. Wang wished all good luck before departing, and Gee sat back down somewhat dejectedly.
"It's gonna be a long day," said Gee.

While Michael Mizrachi has been on the uptick early today, his brother Rob just made an early exit here on Day 3. Bob Buckenmayer, who finished 17th in this event last year, opened with a raise to 3,300 from early position and Dan Cates and Mizrachi called from late position. The flop rolled out 
, and Buckenmayer fired out a continuation bet of 5,700. Cates called, and Mizrachi moved all in for around 25,000. Buckenmayer elected to call the shove, and Cates tank-folded.
Mizrachi: 
Buckenmayer: 
Mizrachi was in a world of hurt against Buckenmayer's set, but he picked up some outs when the arrived on the turn. Buckenmayer needed to fade a king, nine or three to send Mizrachi home, and he did just that when the landed on the river.

Larry Wright opened to 3,200 and was called in two spots as the flop fell 
.
Wright continued for 4,200 only to have an opponent on the button bump it up to 10,200. The big blind folded, and when the action returned to Wright, he started chatting to his opponent.
"Did you mean to call or raise?" Wright asked.
When informed that it was meant to be a raise, Wright stated, "Wow!"
About a minute went by before the player in the nine seat called for time which visibly angered Wright as he had only been thinking for a minute or so.
Eventually Wright would release his hand and slip to 75,600 in chips.
