Bradley Snider
Bradley Snider

Jeff Norman and Bradley Snider have been driving a majority of the action so far. After each doubling through Shame Fumerton, they played a hand versus each other and Snider earned a full double through Norman.

Snider raised and Norman three-bet from the small blind. Snider and Norman continued to raise until each had 60,000 in the pot.

Snider had 18,000 left and the two players got it all in on the {q-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{2-Hearts} flop. Snider was holding {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds} and Norman a pair of sevens, {7-Spades}{7-Diamonds}.

The turn was the {k-Spades} and the river was the {4-Hearts}, giving Snider the double-up.

Chip Stacks from the Other Table

Level 21 : 12,000/24,000, 0 ante

With all the action coming between Bradley Snider and Jeff Norman at Table 722, here are some updated chip counts from the other table where Barry Greenstein and Shane Buchwald have been holding court, and Christopher Chung has been getting short.

Jeff Norman Doubles Again

Level 21 : 12,000/24,000, 0 ante

Day 3 has been all about double-ups so far, two of which have come for Jeff Norman.

In the most recent one, Norman got {k-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} in against Michael Reed's {q-}{q-} only for the board to run out king-high and Norman survived again.

Shane Fumerton Doubles Up Jeff Norman, Then Bradley Snider

Level 21 : 12,000/24,000, 0 ante

With Jeff Norman getting short in the big blind, he got it in against the small blind of Shane Fumerton. Norman held {j-Spades}{10-Spades} and Fumerton {q-Clubs}{9-Hearts}. The board ran out {10-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{2-Spades}{a-Spades}{8-Diamonds} and Norman doubled up.

A few hands later Shane Fumerton raised from middle position and Bradley Snider got it in from the big blind with {4-Clubs}{3-Clubs} against Fumerton's {a-Hearts}{q-Clubs}. There was no help on a {2-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{j-Hearts} flop, but the {5-Hearts} had Snider calling for an ace.

The river was an equally good {3-Diamonds} and he doubled up to just under 80,000.

With just 15 players remaining, Event #24: $1,500 Limit Hold'em has entered its final day with each of them with a chance of securing the title and $177,985 in prize money.

Nancy Nguyen is the chip leader at the start of the day, but the eyes of the poker world will be drawn to Barry Greenstein who is in the hunt for his fourth WSOP gold bracelet and his first since 2008. If he achieves this feat, it will be his first bracelet in a hold'em event, with the three previous coming in 2-7 NL single draw, pot-limit Omaha and razz.

Joining him in the field is Michael Reed who continued to hold the lead until the final two levels of the day. Meanwhile, Ray Henson will be trying to add a bracelet to his four WSOP Circuit rings, and Mark Bassaly will be looking to continue his streak of knocking out players, having eliminated four people late on in Day 2 to surge up the leaderboard.
