Zamani Corrects the Record; Daniels Chips Up Early
Level 21
: Blinds 15,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Martin Zamani, who bagged 2,700,000 as the Day 2 chip leader, has issued a correction to 2,600,000 due to a miscount. It didn't matter much after an early three-handed pot.
A big pot had formed in the middle with over 200,000 and the board showed 8♦3♦J♥. Zamani fired 100,000 to quick folds from Abbas Heidari and Michel Molenaar to take the pot.
On a nearby table, Action was heads up with over 200,000 in the pot and Q♦4♣K♠7♠ when Rick Green check-called a bet of 115,000 from Shawn Daniels to his left. Both players checked the 6♦ river and Daniels turned over K♣10♣ to beat Green's J♠10♥.
Meanwhile, Ken Einiger and Nicholas Seward have been eliminated in the early going.
