"aferrao147" made the minimum raise of 600,000 from middle position and the action folded to Anatoly "NL_Profit" Filatov in the big blind. Filatov was left with just shy of ten big blinds and decided to wager his entire 2,960,600 stack by clicking on the all-in button. "aferrao147" made the call and the players were off to the races.

Anatoly "NL_Profit" Filatov: A♥K♠
"aferrao147": 8♦8♥

Another flip in the Main Event, and, this time, the pocket pair held as the board ran out low cards with 6♣6♦4♣9♦2♣. That spelled the end for Filatov and one of online poker most recognizable names took his leave.

Vicente "vicenfish" Delgado was leading the lobby when "Khrristian18" open-shoved for 3,948,108 from under the gun. Delgado was in the next seat over and made the call, while the rest of the table mucked their holdings.

"Khrristian18": 7♦7♠
Vicente "vicenfish" Delgado: A♠Q♥

Delgado was looking to extend his chip lead with another scalp, but instead, he fell down a few spots on the leaderboard when the 5♣2♥6♠10♣3♣ board was fanned out across the virtual table.

"Khrristian18" doubled up while three other players lost their respective all-ins on outer tables.

Dorneles Denies "3betwizkid" the Chip Lead

"magocapria27" made the first aggressive action with a raise to 630,000 from the cutoff. The button folded and "3betwizkid" shoved their massive stack of 23,447,009 in the middle, far and away covering the two other players left to act.

Luis "luisnrd" Dorneles was in the big blind and went deep into the tank. Eventually, he came up with a call to risk his 10,281,810 stack and tournament life. "magocapria27", meanwhile, had seen enough and let their hand go, leaving the other two players to fight for a humongous pot.

Luis "luisnrd" Dorneles: A♠J♠
"3betwizkid": A♦K♠

"3betwizkid" was in great shape to take a commanding chip lead over the field, and that remained the case once the 2♥5♣8♥ flop was dealt. However, the J♥ turn brought a role reversal, and Dorneles surely thanked his lucky stars when the safe 8♠ completed the board.

The 70 big blind pot headed towards Dorneles, while "3betwizkid" was relegated to the middle of the pack.

After the hand was over, the empty seats on the table filled up as "aferrao147" had busted on another table, leaving the field with 32 competitors and thus four tables.

Player	Chips	Progress
Luis "luisnrd" Dorneles	21,398,620 9,283,286	9,283,286
3betwizkid	13,175,199 -5,057,760	-5,057,760

Level 40 : Blinds 175,000/350,000, 45,000 ante

Day 2 chip leader "2ndOnly2God" raised to 900,000 once it had folded to them on the button. Laszlo "omaha4rollz" Bujtas was in the big blind and made the call.

A flop of 4♠A♥9♥ was spread and "2ndOnly2God" continuation-bet for 675,000 after a check from Bujtas. Bujtas consequently made a raise for his entire stack of 2,020,920, and his opponent instantly called.

Laszlo "omaha4rollz" Bujtas: J♥7♥
"2ndOnly2God": A♣2♦

Bujtas was looking for a heart to beat "2ndOnly2God"s top pair, but he failed to hit one when the board ran out 6♠A♣. "2ndOnly2God" rivered trips and maintained his place on the upper regions of the leaderboard.

Meanwhile, some more eliminations happened on outer tables as this action-packed Day 3 has not slowed down whatsoever.

Level 40 : Blinds 175,000/350,000, 45,000 ante

Luis "luisnrd" Dorneles was the first to act and he made a raise to 717,500, which got called by "HemmingWai" in the next seat over. Next to act was "BOSStouche", sitting in the hijack, and they put in the squeeze three-bet to 2,450,000.

The action folded back to Dorneles, who four-bet shoved for 13,548,135 chips. "HemmingWai" found there to be too much action and folded before "Bosstouche" made the call to put Dorneles at risk once again.

Luis "luisnrd" Dorneles: K♥K♦
"BOSStouche": J♠J♦

Dorneles was sitting on the higher pocket pair, but the 8♣10♥Q♥ flop brought some sweatiness in the form of a gutshot straight draw for his opponent. However, the board blanked out with the 5♦ turn and 3♥ river, and Dorneles soared through the ranks once more.

Player	Chips	Progress
Luis "luisnrd" Dorneles	28,653,790 7,255,170	7,255,170

"Alex Shepel" was left very short and only had 408,238 chips left in their stack once they put in the big blind that they owed. Awaiting their fate, the action folded to Vicente "vicenfish" Delgado in the small blind, who put them all-in. "Alex Shepel" committed the rest of their chips in an effort to prolong their tournament life.

"Alex Shepel": J♣Q♠
Vicente "vicenfish" Delgado: K♥5♥

The 7♠J♥K♣ flop was look rough for "Alex Shepel", but the Q♦ turn granted them two pair to combat the top pair of Delgado. The 4♥ river remained clean for the player playing from Mexico and they secured their first double-up.

Two hands later, the action folded to them on the button and they went all-in again, this time for a slightly more sizable 1,566,476. The small blind folded, but big blind "jani890311" made the call.

"Alex Shepel": A♠3♠
"jani890311": Q♣3♥

"Alex Shepel" had the dominating hand, and nearly secured their double-up on the 10♦7♠8♠ flop. With only a few outs to fade, they successfully managed to double their chips once more when the 4♣ and J♦ completed the runout.

"Alex Shepel" is now back in the game with a fighting chance.

Final Red Spade Eliminated As Colillas Busts

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Frank Visser

Level 41 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 50,000 ante

PokerStars Ambassador Ramon "RamonColillas" Colillas was the last of his kind remaining in the tournament. He was sitting in the small blind when "FAPTOBblY_BACK" open-shoved for 6,931,294 chips. Colillas was the only one to make the call, with the lesser stack of 5,489,770, and all was now in fate's hands.

Ramon "RamonColillas" Colillas: A♣K♣
FAPTOBblY_BACK: A♠J♦

All was looking well for Colillas on the 6♣5♥Q♠ flop. However, the J♥ turn was dealt and it spelled disaster for the Spanish pro. No king came looking as the 6♠ river completed the hand, and Colillas took a sour exit from the SCOOP Main Event.

On outer tables, three more people took their leave to create the final three tables of eight players.
