Follow the action as it unfolds with the live updates available here.
Day 3 of the Card Player Poker Tour Wynn Classic main event began with just 13 players of the 248 who entered, and now only two remain.
Kevin Calenzo and Maxim Sorokin are heads up for the title!
More than $111,600 awaits the winner, while the runner-up will take home $72,024. The winner will also become the second champion of Season III of the CPPT.
The first elimination of the day was Jon Lacatoen, who was crippled in a hand with Timothy Chang when Chang turned a straight to best Lacatoen’s ace-queen. On the very next hand, Zo Karim eliminated a short-stacked Lacatoen.
Following Lacatoen to the rail was Ryan Leadem, who ran his pocket sevens into Sorokin’s pocket kings. Just a few minutes later Richard Hawes made his exit when Keven Stammen bested his pocket fours with ace-king on a six-two-two-jack-king board.
With Hawes exit, the final ten players combined to a single table. Leo Wolpert was then eliminated when he got the last of his chips in the middle holding pocket jacks. Unfortunately for Wolpert, Kevin Calenzo was holding pocket aces and called.
Jareb Hamby was next to go after his pocket jacks were done in by Sorokin’s pocket sevens on a ten-four-three-five-six board.
In quick succession, Stammen, Dan Alspach, Chang and Karim were all eliminated before the bustouts slowed for a bit. Eric Molina was next to go and then Stephen Graner made his exit.
