Chip Counts From Blue and Silver Sections

Level 4 : 100/200, 0 ante

Christian Harder looks set to progress after demolishing his table. He's currently heads-up with 23,200 of the 30,000 chips in play.

Joseph Cheong is also flying high, as are Dominik Nitsche and Jonathan Aguiar.

Meanwhile, British pro Rhys Jones and Portugal's Fernando Brito are quite low on chips.

Shannon Shorr Advances

Level 4 : 100/200, 0 ante

Shannon Shorr in his own words "ran good" overcoming a chip deficit to Michael Mizrachi to win his table and advance to the next round. The last hand saw Shorr eliminate Mizrachi and Victor Ramdin when he flopped a flush draw against Mizrachi's open-ended straight draw and Ramdin's top pair. Shorr would hit the flush on the turn to end it.

Tough Final Three

Level 3 : 50/100, 0 ante

Most of the tables are still six-handed or better but there are a handful of tables that are now short-handed including one table that has Michael Mizrachi, Victor Ramdin, and Shannon Shorr. Another table in the Pavilion is heads-up and Joseph Cheong is dominating his table with 20,000 in chips as they play four-handed.

Phil Ivey's seat is empty as his former table plays with just three. The tournament clock shows 948 as the number of entries. We'll have the prize pool and payout information posted here as soon as it becomes available.

Max Pescatori Twitted...

Level 3 : 50/100, 0 ante

After raking in a moderate-sized pot with {K-Hearts}{K-Clubs} on a {Q-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} board, Amanda Musumeci was asked by Max Pescatori what her name was. The two introduced themselves and Pescatori looked at Musumeci and said "Let me ask you an honest question."

He paused for a moment and then said "I twitted." He was interrupted at that point by laughter from the entire table and the Italian pro looked confused. "It's tweeted," explained Musumeci.

"Okay, well then I tweeted," said Pescatori, a grin on his face. "I tweeted that all women in the US should get a calculator on their 18th birthday. Is that offensive?" Musumeci gave him a glance, uncertain if Pescatori was joking or not. The rest of the table seemed unsure as well, some laughed while others groaned.

Most seemed to take Pescatori for kidding around and the next hand was dealt.
