Eveslage and Deeb Leading Final 15 as Day 3 of Event #40: $10,000 Seven Card Stud Hi-Lo Championship Begins at 3 p.m.
With two days of play in the books, Chad Eveslage is on top of the leaderboard in Event #40: $10,000 Seven Card Stud Hi-Lo 8 or Better Championship. Play is set to resume today at 3 p.m. local time.
Evelsage already has one bracelet to his name this summer here at the World Series of Poker (WSOP) at Bally's and Paris Las Vegas. He won Event #8: $25,000 High Roller No-Limit Hold'em to secure his maiden bracelet and now he has put himself in great position to make a run at a second one.

Shaun Deeb is just behind Eveslage as the only other player with more than one million chips. Deeb has had good results in mixed game events this series, running deep in Omahe 8/B, 2-7 Lowball Triple Draw, and Limit Hold'em events. Now, he looks to add his first bracelet of the summer to his accolades.
Brian Hastings is also on the short list of bracelet winners this year. He took down the $10,000 Limit 2-7 Triple Draw Lowball Championship , and looks to make a run at a second championship win in this event. Hastings is the defending champion of this event from 2021.
Daniel Negreanu comes into Day 3 as the short stack, but with just over four big bets, he will certainly look to run up a stack in search of a seat at the final table.
Remaining bracelet hopefuls will play 90-minute levels today with 10-minute breaks after each level. The tournament is scheduled to play to a winner today, but with extended play yesterday, there were talks of a possible fourth day. Nothing has been made official, so tune in right here to PokerNews for updates as they become available.
