Ignacio Sanchez came into the day as the official chipleader from Day 1c and has continued his momentum into Day 3. With three players in the hand, the flop came {7-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{4-Hearts} and the action checked to Sanchez on the button. He tossed in a bet of 15,000 and only the big blind called.

The turn brought the {a-Diamonds} and the big blind checked to Sanchez again who threw in another 15,000 chip bet. His opponent called and the {3-Diamonds} finished the board. The big blind check-called one more bet of 26,000 and Sanchez tabled {a-Spades}{6-Diamonds} for a straight. His opponent turned over {j-Diamonds}{6-Spades} for a straight as well as the two players chopped the pot.

Sanchez has continued to stack chips throughout the day, while Damian Salas has finally finished stacking his mound of chips. Upon further review, Salas has built his stack up to nearly 800,000 as well, sitting just behind Sanchez in the ranks.
