Just two days ago, the tournament started with 566 players and not long from now the final eight players will take to the felt in hopes of claiming victory. The remaining field is headlined by the current chipleader, David Pham (911,000) and John Juanda (466,000). Joining Pham and Juanda today are Nick Schwarmann(789,000), Jared Jaffee (617,000), Daniel Park (480,000), Jonathan D’Souza (446,000), Justin Oliver (300,000) and Mike DeGilio (253,000).
The nature of four-handed play will guarantee an exciting day of poker with plenty of action. All eight players will be positioning themselves to make it to the final table of four but only one will be able to claim the first-place prize of $309,071 and take home a golden souvenir.
Action begins at 1:00 p.m. local time in the Amazon Room. Follow live updates and hand-for-hand coverage from the final table right here at PokerNews.

A More Serious Atmosphere
Towards the end of Day 2 the players were happy, joking and in a jovial mood, but that has changed. It is as if they have realized they are only seven players away from winning a WSOp bracelet.
So far play has been cagey with most pots settled preflop. Stay tuned, though. We have a feeling this is the calm before the storm.
DiGilio Check-Raises D'Souza
Jonathan D'Souza opened the betting with a raise to 23,000 on the button and met some resistance from Mike DiGilio who three-bet to 50,000 from the big blind. D'Souza called and the 
flop came into view.
DiGilio checked, D'Souza bet 50,000 and DiGilio stared him down. Thirty second later, DiGilio check-raised to an unknown amount, unknown because no sooner had DiGilio pushed his chips forward, D'Souza's cards hit the muck.
Jonathan D'Souza Eliminated in 8th Place ($29,770)
The tournament has lost its first player of the day, that dubious honor going to Jonathan D'Souza.
A 20,000 raise from David Pham from under the gun was called by D'Souza, who was next to act. The dealer spread the 
flop. Pham checked, D'Souza quikcly moved all in and Pham beat him into the pot with a call.
D'Souza: 
Pham: 
"Oh! Really?" said D'Souza when he saw he was essentially drawing dead.
The 
turn gave D'Souza some outs to a chop, but the 
river was not one of them and sent D'Soua to the cahsier's desk to claim eighth place money.

Chips Are Starting To Move
Play started a little quiet on table #447 with a preflop raise taking it down. The players have begun to seen a few flops and are using position to their advantage.
An example:
Nick Schwarmann raised to 20,000 from the button and Daniel Park reraised to 50,000 from the big blind. Schwarmann called and then check called Park's 40,000 bet on the 
flop. Park checked the 
turn and Schwarmann bet 84,000. Park raised to 200,000 and after some thought Schwarmann 3-bet all in for more. Park mucked and Schwarmann showed 
.

Mike DeGilio Eliminated in 7th Place ($29,770)
Mike DeGilio has been eliminated and we are down to six players in Event #38.
Justin Oliver opened on the button and in a flurry of activity DeGilio was all in and Oliver had called.
DeGilio: 
Oliver: 
DeGilio would need some help from the board, but it failed to materialize as the five community cards fell 
. DeGilio had to endure more pain as the floor staff had to double check the chip stacks of both all-in players. Oliver did have DeGilio covered and he was officially busted from the tournament.

Jafee Doubles Through Juanda
"All-in and a call," was the cry from the dealer, alerting us to the Table #447.
We turned around to discover Jared Jaffee all in with 
against the 
of John Juanda on a flop that read 
. The 
turn almost hit Juanda. but you get nothing for nearly hitting in this game. The 
completed the board and Jaffee's double up.
