It took a little while to get there but Event 3 is finally in the money with 72 players remaining. The tournament went into hand-for-hand mode when it was one away from the money with the clock paused and two minutes coming off per hand.

There were two early, small doubles but it took five hands over 30 minutes for the bubble to burst.

Greg Yeager was all in and at risk for his last approximate 175,000 after the flop. His was in trouble against his opponent’s trip queens and the turn did not help. The table erupted when the two-out river hit the board and Yeager had a double.

On another table, also with a flop out, WSOP bracelet winner Michael Wang was all in for 56,000 with the board reading . “Psycho Marc” Masino had him at risk but Wang’s two pair was ahead of Masino’s two pair . The turn was clean for Wang but it was another tough river, the , to fill Masino’s boat to send Wang out on the bubble.
