Norbert Szecsi opened to 400,000 from the button and Tyler Cornell defended his big blind.
The flop came J♣Q♣J♥ and Cornell check-called a 275,000 continuation bet from Szecsi.
Cornell checked again on the 4♠ turn and Szecsi fired a second barrel for 550,000. Cornell check-raised to 1,500,000 and Szecsi made the call.
Cornell bet 2,200,000 on the 5♣ river, committing more than two thirds of his stack. Szecsi raised to 5,830,000, enough to put Cornell all in. Cornell went deep into the tank, clearly put on a difficult decision.
After four minutes and 11 seconds of consideration, Cornell folded J♦10♣ for trips and was left short-stacked while Szecsi, who had A♣4♣ for the ace-high flush, extended his chip lead over the rest of the field.
Pedro Garagnani shoved with 4,225,000 chips from the button. Weiran Pu in the small blind folded, but Norbert Szecsi in the big blind seemed to have a decision. After a minute, he called.
Pedro Garagnani: A♥Q♠
Norbert Szecsi: A♦9♦
Both players hit something on the flop Q♦K♦10♥. Garagnani was still in the lead with a pair of queens, but needed to avoid a diamond, or a jack to split.
Luckily for him, the 2♣ landed on the turn and the 8♣ on the river, resulting in Garagnani doubling up to 8,750,000 chips.
They are joined by none other than Daniel Negreanu, who took a break from his busy summer schedule to talk about a plethora of topics including what it’s been like running deep in the lower buy-in, big field events, interacting with fans, and how he feels about his performance thus far.
Negreanu also offers his thoughts on the Poker Hall of Fame, including who he thinks will get in and the changes he’d like to see moving forward. Finally, “Kid Poker” offers his prediction for the 2023 WSOP Main Event, which is also the first big topic discussed by the hosts.
Chad and Jesse then do a new "Calling the Clock" segment in which they offer quick two-minute dialogues for topics on “The Board.”
They are joined by Joey Ingram, AKA Papi, a lover of four-card poker. A prolific poker podcaster, Ingram is known for his marathon emergency investigations into such controversial matters as the Mike Postle and Robbi Jade Lew cheating allegations. Ingram, who was in L.A. for the Hustler Casino Live $1,000,000 Cash Game, recently returned to Las Vegas and was at the 2023 WSOP for the first time when he sat down with the guys.
Hear what Ingram thinks the future holds for poker, which just might surprise you.
Chad and Jesse also break down all ten nominees for the Poker Hall of Fame Class of 2023. Only one will get in, and it’ll undoubtedly be a close affair with so many deserving individuals.

There are just six of the original 1,199 entries left to answer this question and win the tournament. After three days, the favorite is two-time WSOP bracelet winner Norbert Szecsi, arriving as the chip leader of the final table with 18,600,000 chips, which is nearly 100 big blinds.
However, Angelina Rich, a player from Down Under, will be close behind him with 14,000,000 chips.

Weiran Pu will be the outsider of this final table as he'll have the third-largest chip stack. Despite being down to just a few blinds on Day 3, he made an impressive comeback and finished with 10,475,000 chips.
However, to reach the first place, he will have to fight with Tyler Cornell. The American player, in his pursuit of a second WSOP bracelet, will restart with 7,475,000 chips.
The chip counts on Day 2 showed Vitor Dzivielevski (5,850,000) and Pedro Garagnani (4,725,000) in first and second place, respectively. They are now occupying the last two positions. However, both players still have room to maneuver with more than 20 blinds. Dzivielevski will attempt to imitate his brother, Yuri, who won his third WSOP bracelet this summer in the $1,500 H.O.R.S.E. event.
The game will resume in Paris and Horseshoe Las Vegas at 4 p.m. on Level 30 (small blind 100,000, big blind 200,000, ante 200,000) and will end when a winner takes the $938,244 prize and the bracelet.
