Jason Mercier also bagged for Day 3 (340,000) having just won the $1,500 version of this very tournament just one day ago.
The players who busted before reaching the money on Day 2 is also a whose who list of poker elites as Phil Ivey, Chance Kornuth, Phil Hellmuth and Sam Soverel all went home empty handed.
While Mercier and company were building stacks to take into Day 3, there were a handful of players who busted late in the day and went home with a payout including defending champion Pedro Bromfman (24th - $16,000) who fell in a pot versus John Monnette, Dan Shak (23rd - $16,000), Yehuda Buchalter (22nd - $16,000), Jeff Lennon (21st - $16,000) and Christopher Claassen (20th - $17,500) who hit the rail when he broke a better low than Negranu and ended up paring one of his hole cards.
Play had originally been scheduled to play through Level 17, but after a late start and a handful of players that didn't want to play until 3:00a.m., play was stopped after Level 16.

Ruben Doubles Through Ramos
Level 16
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 15,000 ante
Galen Hall opened to 24,000 from middle position only to see Felipe Ramos move all in from the cutoff. Brad Ruben then called off for less on the button, prompting the remaining players and Hall to get out of the way.
Ramos stood pat, something that sent Ruben deep into the tank as decided whether to break his hand. He did eventually pat back with 9x8x7x3x2x and received the good news once Ramos turned over 10x8x6x5x3x to score the double, leaving Ramos short.

Level 16
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 15,000 ante
Jeff Lennon opened to 22,000 from middle position before Felipe Ramos three-bet in the cutoff. Action folded back around to Lennon who moved all in and was instantly called.
Both players stood pat after which Lennon tabled 8x6x4x3x2x. Despite the strength of his hand, it came up short against the 8x5x4x3x2x of Ramos to send Lennon to the rail in 21st place in cruel fashion.
