Manelic Minaya, boasting over $2,000,000 in tournament winnings, built on his impressive Day 2 performance and returns in the thick of the action.
Kevin Song, a decorated player with $4,000,000 in tournament earnings and multiple final table appearances since his first bracelet win in 1997, starts with 4,400,000 chips.
