James Rann couldn't have got it in better preflop. After Andrew Brokos opened to 45,000 on the cutoff, James Rann three-bet to 115,000. Andre Haneberg was in the small blind and after a brief time in the tank, he cold four-bet shoved. Brokos moved aside and it was a snap from Rann.

James Rann: {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}
Andre Haneberg: {a-Spades}{q-Spades}

Rann was the massive favorite at this point but the {k-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{9-Spades} flop changed that, bringing out a flush draw for Haneberg. The {9-Hearts} kept Rann ahead but the {10-Spades} river brought the flush and the chips to Haneberg, who winced on Rann's behalf.

Pavlo Veksler moved all-in for his last 200,000 from the small blind over the button open of Timur Margolin. The big blind folded and Margolin called.

Timur Margolin: {4-Hearts}{4-Spades}
Pavlo Veksler: {a-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}

"I'm pretty good at winning these" joked Margolin and they wished each other good luck. The dealer fanned the {k-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} flop and it was no help to Veksler. The turn brought {k-Diamonds} and the {3-Diamonds} completed the board.

Margolin's pocket fours held up and Veksler was eliminated in 24th place earning $15,051 for his efforts.

Andrew Brokos raised from early position and Edan Sucov moved all-in for 355,000. It folded back to Brokos who called and the hands were shown.

Andrew Brokos: {j-Hearts}{j-Clubs}
Edan Sucov: {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}

The dealer spread the {j-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{3-Spades} flop and Brokos improved to top set to move well ahead in the hand. Sucov needed the gutshot queen or runner runner hearts to survive, but the turn brought the {3-Diamonds} giving Brokos a full house leaving Sucov drawing dead. The meaningless {3-Hearts} hit the river and Sucov was sent to the rail in 26th place taking home $15,051 for his efforts.

In one of the last hands of the previous blind level Dylan Linde raised to 27,000 from early position. Chris Edwards was next to act and he re-raised to 105,000. It folded back to Linde who moved all-in for 470,000 sending Edwards deep into the tank.

He eventually called turning over {q-Spades}{q-Hearts} but Linde was ahead holding {k-Diamonds}{k-Spades}. The board ran out clean for Linde {a-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{2-Clubs} and his pocket kings held up to earn him the double-up.

James Rann opened the action to 25,000 in middle-late position and Ryan Laplante shoved 165,000 all-in. It was a very quick call from Rann and they turned their cards over.

James Rann: {5-Spades}{5-Clubs}

The {10-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} flop gave Laplante the better pair. The {3-Diamonds} turn paired the board and the {2-Spades} river completed the board, leaving Laplante with the winning hand.

Event #43: $2,500 No-Limit Hold'em will start soon and 34 hopefuls will come back and try their best to build a stack throughout the course of the day.

Seth Davies finished as chip leader yesterday (1,305,000). Hot on his heels are Jeff Hakim (1,164,000) and Javier Fernandez (1,093,000), who were the only other two players to finish with over 1 million chips in play. Some other formidable stacks include Andrew Brokos (625,000), Daniel Buzgon (570,000) and Ismael Bojang (497,000).

David Peters (480,000), Chris Ferguson (402,000), Ryan Laplante (292,000), Andreas Klatt (230,000) are some of the other big names still in contention. They, and all the players, will be vying for the title, the first place prize of $507,274 and a coveted WSOP bracelet.

Originally there were three days scheduled for the tournament but a fourth was added as it became clear that a conclusion will not be reached by the end of today. Day 3 begins at Level 21: small blind 6,000, big blind 12,000 and an ante of 2,000. Ten 60-minute levels will be played with 15-minute breaks coming after every two levels, and a 60-minute dinner break at the end of the day's sixth level.
