Two of the top three chipstacks are currently unattended. Tuan Phan and Manh Nguyen have not made it to the tournament area yet, which accounts for nearly 2,000,000 chips not in play.
After two long days at the WSOP Circuit Harrah's Atlantic City Main Event, 20 players return to battle for a WSOP-C ring, a seat at the National Championship and $188,830. Leading the charge is Tuan Phan, who has a slight chiplead over Mike Devinsky.
A long day is in store for the remaining players — they will have to play down to a winner, no matter how long it takes. The short stacks will have their work cut out for them, as the bottom five players are all under 20 big blinds.
Five-figure payouts start at 15th place and a final-table finish guarantees $17,516 just in time for the holidays. A fifth-place finish could provide Lexus commercial Christmas with $47,684. The top two finishers will return home with a six-figure prize.
One thing is for sure, we'll crown a first-time ring winner later tonight or sometime tomorrow morning. Follow all the WSOP-C action live on Pokernews kicking off shortly!
