Who Will Make the Money on Day 3 of the $10,000 No-Limit Hold'em Wynn Millions ($10M GTD)?
Welcome to Day 3 of the Wynn Millions! Day 2ab saw 76 players advance from the 240 survivors from Days 1ab and yesterday, the remaining 246 players from Days 1c took to the felt.
After five levels of play, only 86 of them made it through and the time has arrived for the two fields to combine under one roof.
At noon today, those 162 players that're still in contention from the 1,328 total entries will battle it out for their shot at a piece of the $13,280,000 prize pool.
The top 134 players will make it into the money meaning 28 players will be leaving empty-handed. Entering today with the chip lead is Frank Funaro, who bagged a whopping 953,000 on Day 2c.

Players in the top ten all hold a stack with over 100 big blinds but doesn't mean there isn't plenty of formidable contenders still left in the field as Farid Jattin (662,000), Daniel Negreanu (621,000), Maria Ho (500,000), Jared Jaffee (462,000) and Connor Drinan (449,000) will make their way up the mountain in hopes of making a deep run.
While the latter sits comfortably, an uphill battle is instore for Nadya Magnus (106,000), John Racener (103,00), David Pham (95,000), Sergio Aido (92,000), Kathy Liebert (85,000), and Jack McClelland (34,000) if they wish to make it into the money here on Day 3.

There're 162 players returning for Day 3 action, and only 134 spots will be grabbing a piece of the prize pool. Starting the day this close to the money might make for some conservative play, but judging by the previous flights, the tournament should retain the action-filled play that has been up to this point.
A min-cash will be paying $25,091, but all eyes will be on making it through Day 3 for a chance to win the $2,018,666 first-place prize.
