Event #88: $10,000 Eight Game Mixed Championship (6-Handed)
Giorno 3 completo
After seven levels and over ten hours of play, Day 3 of Event #88: $10,000 Eight Game Mixed Championship is done and in the books.
Twenty-two players returned to the Horseshoe Event Center today with the plan to play down to a winner. However, two players remain and must return Saturday to decide who will receive the WSOP bracelet and the first-place prize of $413,446.
Calvin Anderson holds the advantage in the heads-up battle with 7,545,000, while Dai Ishibashi has 3,905,000.
Place | Player | Country | Chip Count | Big Blinds |

1 | Calvin Anderson | United States | 7,545,000 | 38 |
2 | Dai Ishibashi | Japan | 3,905,000 | 20 |
The action started from the very first hand of the day when Chris Brewer eliminated Connor Drinan in a hand of Limit Hold’em. Drinan got it in with middle pair against a gutshot and Drinan turned trips. However, Brewer’s gutshot materialized on the river and Drinan hit the rail in 22nd after just one hand of play.
Koji Fujimoto's day came to a close when he finished in 18th place. His unpredictable play was difficult for his opponents to navigate all tournament. In a hand of pot-limit Omaha, he jammed the river with the nut straight only to be snapped off by the rivered full house of Yuri Dzivielevski.
With the elimination of Maxx Coleman in 13th place, the remaining 12 players moved to the feature tables with Gus Hansen holding the lead.
Start-of-day chip leader Adam Friedman was taken out in 11th place after he ran into the flush of Ishibashi in a hand of pot-limit Omaha.
Shortly after, Calvin Anderson started to accumulate a significant chip lead. He won a massive pot against Tom Koral and Hansen in a hand of Omaha Hi-Lo in which he made a full house on the river and got paid. He continued to run hot and went into the final table with a huge chip lead as he held almost half of the chips in play
Play at the final table started slow, but some of the short stacks started to fall. Andres Korn fell in seventh place followed by Koral in sixth place.
After a series of short stack doubles, Paul Gunness was the next to fall in fifth place and Mike Watson took fourth.
Ali Eslami ground the short stack for the entire final table and finally got some momentum before a couple of bad runouts in a row sent him to the rail in third place.
Anderson and Ishibashi played heads up for an hour before the tournament director decided that the players would bag up for the night and return tomorrow.
