Shannon Elizabeth is the second player to enter Day 1c after having bagged chips for Day 2 already and will try to surpass her stack size of Day 1a, as the bigger stack will be carried over for the race towards the money stages.
She was involved in a hand with "Amstel" and bet the 8♥5♣5♦6♥4♣ river for 4,000. "Amstel" called and Elizabeth shrugged "you got it, I don't have anything" before she flashed her 10♠2♣. The pot went to "Amstel" with the A♠5♠ for trips fives.
With some 8,000 in the middle to the K♥K♦4♦7♠3♥ river, Warren Zackey checked and Stephen Courtney bet 4,000. The check-raise to 10,000 by Zackey followed and Courtney called within a few seconds to instantly roll over his K♣9♥ already.
Zackey never showed his cards but slid them into the muck.
With 3,600 in preflop by Ivan Wessels, Harold Brooks called and they checked the 8♠2♥2♦ flop. Brooks then check-called for 3,600 on the 10♠ turn before the 3♠ river was checked again.
Wessels tabled his K♥8♥ but Brooks won the pot with the J♠J♦ for jacks and deuces.
"Nice hand," Wessels sighed as he dropped to half the starting stack early already.
At nearly half way in level one, the field has grown to 34 entries spread across seven tables. Warren Zackey and his son Lagen are signed up now, along with several other notables from the last two days.
On a flop of 9♦5♣2♠, Warren Slade bet 500 for Elai Mazor to call and they checked the 7♦ on the turn. Slade bet again the Q♣ river for 1,100 and Mazor called after brief consideration to win the pot with the K♣5♦, as Slade sent his cards into the muck.
Kinesh Pater finished in fifth place in the ZAR50,000 High Roller on the live stream table last night and he is among the notables in the Day 1c field. There are now already four tables open and that number will certainly increase in the next few hours.
The third starting day has kicked off with three tables running and some 17 players are seated. If there are three or more players ready to go, the respective new tables will kick off.
