From an initial 6,501 runners, the field has been narrowed to just 39 players as they enter the fourth and final day of Event #21: $1,500 Monster Stack No-Limit Hold'em.

Day 1A chip leader Frank Lagodich has battled his way back to second place in the tournament, with a current stack of 16,450,000. Rounding out the top five are WSOP bracelet winner Anthony Spinella (15,850,000), Australia's Andrej Senic (15,375,000), and Francis Anderson (15,300,000).

Saliba Seals Ladder, Doubles Up Through Chait

Level 32 : 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante

The action folded around to Craig Chait in the small blind and Chait forced Justin Saliba to make a decision for his tournament life by moving all in.

After a minute, Saliba realized that he had already secured a ladder up of just under $6,000, he called.

Justin Saliba: {a-Diamonds}{6-Spades}
Craig Chait: {8-Hearts}{5-Spades}

The self-proclaimed mixed-games player did not improve on the {k-Spades}{4-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{3-Clubs} runout and Saliba doubled up to 14 big blinds.

Action started when Mike Jukich opened to 650,000 from middle position. Jessica Teusl three-bet to 1,800,000 from the cutoff. Only Jukich made the call.

Both players checked on the flop of {j-Spades}{10-Spades}{9-Clubs}. The turn came the {k-Hearts} and Jukich checked. Teusl bet out for 3,500,000 which was called.

On the {3-Hearts} river Jukich quickly checked again and Teusl assembled a bet sliding out 5,850,000. Jukich slammed the table in disgust.

"I let you off the hook on this one", said Jukich before tossing his cards in the muck awarding Teusl the large pot.
