Action has started on stream, and live updates will now resume.
They have moved the final table to the streamed featured tables, and live reporting will go on approximately a two-and-a-half-hour delay to match the live stream, per the WSOP media guidelines.
The sickest final table ever in a $600 buy-in World Series of Poker (WSOP) event will get underway Tuesday evening, and it includes two of the best WSOP Circuit grinders ever — Maurice Hawkins and Josh Reichard.
Here's where it gets crazy: Two of the top high-stakes pros in history — Daniel Negreanu and Alex Foxen — are at that same table. Basically, it's a battle of high-stakes G.O.A.T.S. versus mid-stakes G.O.A.T.S. for a WSOP bracelet.
There's another storyline in play as this final table approaches, and you're not going to want to miss the live updates right here at PokerNews, and that is Hawkins has a shot to finally win his first bracelet after having won a record 25 Circuit rings.

Brent Gregory raised to 800,000 on the button and Sebastian Crema three-bet to 3,900,000 in the small blind, leaving himself with about 425,000 behind. Gregory then four-bet jammed and Crema put the rest of his stack in the middle to put himself at risk.
Sebastian Crema: K♦J♦
Brent Gregory: A♥Q♣
Crema couldn't find any help on the 3♠4♣8♥4♥10♦ runout, and the pot was pushed Gregory's way.

Jairo Ramos: A♠10♣
Josh Reichard: J♠J♥
Reichard was in a great spot, and when the board ran out K♠7♠4♦J♦3♥ he improved to set of jacks to knockout Ramos.
