Dia 3 Iniciado
Welcome back to the Rio All-Suite Hotel and Casino and the 2013 World Series of Poker for the final day of Event #42: $1,000 No-Limit Hold'em!
2,100 players took to the felt on Sunday, and now just 11 remain with their eyes firmly on the gold bracelet and $345,037 first prize. Great Britain's Rory Mathews is in the best shape to mount a charge at the title after he bagged an impressive 898,000 in chips, but hot on his heels are Denis Gnidash (815,000), Norbert Szecsi (738,000) and Dana Buck (663,000).
Also in contention are experienced tournament pros Chris DeMaci (591,000) and short stack Daniel Neilson (243,000) as everyone will firstly be looking to surpass the guaranteed $19,939 min-cash before locking up at least $25,392 on the final table.

All 11 players are here, and the tournament has restarted.
We are now 10 minutes into Day 3 action, and so far we haven't seen a flop.
Raise and take it down or raise and three-bet then a fold has been the story so far.
With only two eliminations needed until we hit the final table, it is understandable that players are playing a little on the tight side.
Rory Mathews opened to 32,000 from middle position, and as the action folded back to Daniel Neilson, he pushed all in for just a little over 200,000.
Mathews instantly folded and Neilson picked up some much-needed chips as he is still the tournament's short stack.
Dana Buck opened to 35,000 from under the gun and Denis Gnidash made the call from the button.
With the action on Dan Murariu, he moved all in for 330,000 and both Buck and Gnidash kicked their cards to the muck.
