Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Alexandre Vuilleumier, Brian Hastings, and Brad Sailor went three-handed to the turn on a board of K♠3♦4♠2♥ when Hastings bet 6,000 from the big blind and both opponents called.

The river came the 10♥ and Hastings then checked to Vuilleumier in the hijack, who fired out 13,000. Sailor quickly called on the button while Hastings got out of the way.

Vuilleumier turned over A♣10♣, but Sailor had K♣Q♣ to take the pot at this star-studded table that also includes James Obst.

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Samuel Asselin three-bet to 32,000 from the cutoff before Neel Murthy, in the hijack, reraised to 85,000. Asselin spent nearly five minutes in the tank before calling to the J♣10♣9♦ flop.

It was then Murthy's turn to sit motionless for several minutes to the point that tablemate Nick Guagenti had to ask whose turn it was. Murthy eventually slid forward 200,000, enough to put Asselin all in.

Asselin again tanked for several minutes until another tablemate finally called the clock. He let the countdown reach zero before mucking K♠K♦.

Murthy claimed to have had A♣K♣ as he dragged in the pot that took more than 10 minutes without going past the flop.

Daniel DiPasquale raised from early position preflop and Allen Kesller called from the small blind. The pair then saw a 2♦4♦K♥ flop, where Kessler checked and DiPasquale bet out 6,000. Kessler made the call and the 8♥ turn showed its face.

Kessler promptly led out for 15,000 and DiPasquale thought for a little while before putting in the call. The 3♦ river fell and Kessler bet again, this time for 20,000.

This time, DiPasquale responded with a raise to 85,000. "Really? Coolered on the first hand?" Kessler asked. He mulled it over for a bit longer before eventually folding, granting the pot to his opponent.

Anatoly Nikitin raised to 5,000 from the button, finding two callers; Venkata Chinta in the small blind and John Desimone in the big.

The flop came K♣2♦2♣ and the action was checked to Nikitin who bet out for 3,000. Chinta called and Desimone raised to 12,000.

At the sight of the raise, both remaining players folded and Desimone claimed this pot.

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Leonard Maue opened to 5,000 from the cutoff and was three-bet to 15,000 by Barry Greenstein on the button. Action folded back to Maue, who called.

Maue check-called a 15,000 bet from Greenstein on the 7♥3♣2♥ flop and then both players checked on the 7♣ turn.

The K♣ completed the board and Maue checked again, which prompted a 30,000 bet from Greenstein. Maue sighed and tanked for a while before deciding to call. Greenstein showed him A♠K♠ and Maue mucked — awarding the pot to Greenstein.

Jiacong Zhang opened to 5,500 and Ravi Raghavan called a couple of spots to his left before Jon Gisler three-bet 19,500 in the small blind. Zhang took about 30 seconds and made the call, and Raghavan got out of the way.

The dealer fanned a flop of 5♠4♣2♣, and Gisler checked to Zhang who put out a bet of 8,500. Gisler called.

The 7♦ turn and 5♦ river both received checks and Gisler tabled A♦K♣, before Zhang showed 6♦6♥ to drag the pot.

On the second hand of the day, Juan Pardo got his final 18,000 chips in the middle against Lok Chan preflop.

Juan Pardo: K♥J♦
Lok Chan: A♥6♥

Chan flopped an ace on 3♦A♦Q♣. Pardo still had a gutshot straight draw, but it did not come in on the Q♥ turn or the 8♠ river.

He was one of the first few players to see their Main Event dreams get crushed on Day 3.

Action was joined with the board reading Q♣5♠Q♦4♣. Zachary Grech, the big blind, bet 13,500. Jean Souprayenmestry, who was under the gun, then began to think. He mulled his options for over a minute before making the call.

The 4♠ arrived on the river. Grech checked this time, leading to a bet of 25,000 from Souprayenmestry. Grech did not make the call, awarding an early pot to Souprayenmestry.

All the chips went in the middle preflop between Heitor Saraiva, and David Richards who was at risk for his last 36,000.

David Richards: J♠J♣
Heitor Saraiva: A♠K♥

The flop first showed 7♦5♣A♦ to give the top pair to Saraiva, but a J♥ showed up on the turn to save Richards with a set of jacks and the double up after the 7♣ completed the board.
