Main Event, Day 3

Compared to previous days, it's definitely a different atmosphere for Day 3 here in the back portion of the poker area of the Sands Casino, right in the middle of the casino.

Slot machines are ringing all around us, music plays amid the constant hum and chatter, and the dimness and noise all contrast sharply with the relative quiet of the bright conference room downstairs where Days 1a, 1b, and 2 of the tourney took place.

That said, the players appear comfortable and without too much in the way of distractions as the final two tables proceed. And there's a nice opportunity for passersby to rail the event by standing around the perimeter on the outside of poker area. Some are stopping out of curiosity, while a few are here supporting specific players.
