After unknown action we've lost Andy Bloch on Scott Seiver's table. Bloch had been short for a while and the runner-up to Chip Reese in the first ever $50,000 H.O.R.S.E. did not manage to stage a comeback.
Calvin Anderson went through some big swings and during a hand of Stud 8 he was knocked out by Ola Amundsgard.
Abe Mosseri brought it in with the , Glantz completed, and Duhamel made it two bets. The action folded back to Glantz, who called, and the Parx Poker Room Ambassador called another bet from Duhamel on fourth street.
The 2010 WSOP Main Event champ slowed down on fifth, check-calling a bet, and both players checked on sixth. Duhamel checked a third consecutive time on seventh, Glantz bet, and Duhamel tank-called.
On a flop of , Gary Benson bet 35,000 only to have David Oppenheim raise the pot to 137,000. Benson thought long and hard before making the call and then led out with a big bet on the turn. Oppenheim only had 102,000 back and called off.
Oppenheim:
Benson:
Benson got it in good, but then the dealer burned and put out the . "Ohhhh, you're kidding me," Benson lamented. He then joked, "You running it twice?"
Oppenheim got a good chuckle out of it but didn't let it stop him from stacking the pot.
John Monnette moved all in for 6,000 on the button, Abe Mosseri called, and Chris Klodnicki moved all in for 31,000 out of the big blind. Mosseri called.

When Mosseri called for four cards on the first draw, several players at the table laughed. When he only had to draw one on the second, the laughs became louder.
On the final draw, the players opened their cards.
Mosseri:
Klodnicki:
Monnette:
Mosseri rolled over a , giving him an eighty-six, and Klodnicki pealed a .
"Another four-card draw for Abe," Mosseri said, grinning and pulling in the pot.
Monnette and Klodnicki were both eliminated, and Mosseri is up over 1.7 million chips.
On third street 45,000 chips went into the pot by Jason Mercier, John Hennigan and Robert Mizrachi. Mercier and Hennigan checked to Mizrachi who bet on fourth street, and they both called.
On fifth street all three players checked and on sixth Mercier hit a pair of tens and bet. Hennigan called, Mizrachi raised and both Mizrachi and Hennigan called. On seventh the action was checked to Mizrachi who bet and Mercier called while Hennigan folded.
Mizrachi threw face up and Mercier looked quite frustrated as he threw his cards into the muck.
Jonathan Duhamel opened for 20,000 from the cutoff and received calls from Gary Benson and Ola Amundsgard in the small and big blind respectively. Both those players checked the flop, Duhamel continued for 30,000, and Benson folded.
Amundsgard then check-raised to 74,000 and it did the trick as the 2010 WSOP Main Event champ released his hand.
Abe Mosseri opened for 20,000 from the cutoff and then called when Gary Benson three-bet to 48,000 from the button. Mosseri proceeded to check-call a bet of 50,000 on the flop before both players checked the turn. When the completed the board on the river, Mosseri checked and Benson bet 65,000. Mosseri then check-raised to 150,000 an Benson called.
Mosseri rolled over the for top set, and it was good as Benson mucked.
John Hennigan just ended up all in for his final 109,000 chips after the flop holding and he was up against . Hennigan's opponent, Frank Kassela, had a flush draw but did not hit and Hennigan survived this all in.
The tournament staff has just announced that the remaining players will play five more hands at each table before bagging and tagging for the night. We're headed out to catch any late action and to compile some chip counts. Stay tuned for those as well as a full recap of the Day 3 action.
