2-7 Triple Draw:
Greg Mueller raised from the small blind and Kevin Calenzo defended from the big. Both players drew two and Mueller check-called a bet from Calenzo. He then drew two while Calenzo took one. From there, it went check-check and each player drew one card one last time.
Mueller checked and allowed Calenzo to bet, but then he woke up with a check-raise to 200,000. Calenzo didn't look happy but made the call nonetheless.
"Wheel," Mueller said and flipped over 
. Needless to say, it was good.

The action is pretty slow three handed, and with just 50 minutes remaining in the day we could be looking at a fourth day of poker in this event.
This still needs to be determined, but previous tournaments have taught us that a hard stop will be applied after ten levels of play.

Limit Hold'em
He held on for a long time, but eventually fourth place was the spot in which Joseph Couden got eliminated. From the small blind Couden raised to 80,000 and Greg Mueller defended his big blind.
The flop came down 
and Couden bet 40,000. Mueller raised it up to 80,000 and Couden hesitated for about five seconds before putting in 120,000. Mueller put his opponent all in for 10,000 more, which brought us to a showdown.
Greg Mueller turned over 
and was ahead against Couden's 
. The turn was the 
and the river the 
giving Mueller the chips and the knockout. Couden was eliminated and we are down to just three players.

It's been pretty slow for the last couple of orbits. Nobody wants to play big pots and players keep trading blinds and antes.

Omaha Hi/Lo:
There hasn't been much action since the elimination of Donnacha O'Dea. A recent hand is indicative of the sort of play we've seen the last fifteen minutes of so:
Action folded to Kevin Calenzo on the button and he raised to 80,000, which David Baker called from the small blind. The later proceeded to lead out on the 
flop, Calenzo called, and then both players checked the 
turn.
The river saw Baker bet once again, but this time Calenzo folded.
