Earlier today Mads Andersen who started with 270,000 got it all in against Greg Raymer the WSOP Champion with QQ on a 8 T J flop Greg had 99 and hit a 7 for the straight .
Barny Boatman raised 96,000 all in after David Chui opened for 12,000 only to run into Peter Costas KK , Barny had KQs
Dave Colclough was in the blinds with Q6o , he checked a flop of 2 6 7 6 then called a 100,000 bet when a T fell on the river , his opponnent had limped in with A6o !
The same player busted Surinder Sunar , on a flop 7 high with three diamonds , Surinder moved all in for $229,000 with two black Aces , John Smith called with 99 and when the Q of diamonds turned made a flush and was up to 2,000,000 in chips , he ended the day with 1,600,000 .
Alan Goering the first winner of this event took his AQ up against KK and rivered an A
Joe Beevers survived to the money but dropped to only 60,000 then as players dropped quickly he found some form , when a player showed weakness and just called the BB joe raised and took the pot , next time round the same player raised on the button , this time Joe in the SB moved in for 200,000 with JJ , Johan Storakers thinking his hand was good and Joe was making a move reraised all in with AQ , the button passed his A9 , Joes JJ stood up and he doubled up , he told me if the A9 had called he would have made a straight , the very next round Johan moved in from FP and all passed to Joe in the BB , this time he had QQ , he ended the day above average with 565,000 .
There are at least 4 players with a 1,000,000 including Phil Ivey who when everyone was trying to secure the $30,000 stole the blinds relentlessly and trebled his stack .
Tomorrow is no longer about survivig , it is about who really wants to win this and is prepared to use there chips while others are content to move up the rungs of the payscale .
Lets hope one of the Europeans makes a run and has a real chance of making the final and a shot at the $2,800,000
ACES
Day 3 ended with just 45 players left , when they were one off the money it took nearly an hour before the bubble boy was busted , that honour went to Danny Dang , he was all in from FP with JJ , all passed to the BB who called with QJo , flop was Q 8 3 5 8 making 100 players very happy , the next hour 37 people busted out , the money didn't go up till 50 , then it increased to $37,000 , once they lose another 5 tomorrow it will go to the next level $47,000 .
