It is set to be another day of excitement inside the Playground Poker Club as the partypoker MILLIONS North America $5,300 Main Event is ready to resume play on Day 4. Darryll Fish will be the front-runner of the 51 runners taking their seats at the beginning of the day. The tournament will be playing down to the final eight before bags will be hitting the table.
Fish finished with an impressive 98,450,000 and is a big chip leader going into Day 4, with the next closest being Montreal's own Guillaume Nolet (87,000,000). There are only three other players to end Day 3 with over 70 million in chips and that list includes Taylor Black (81,275,000), Lucas Drolet (78,400,000), and Ryan Wolters (73,275,000).
Anthony Ruberto sits in sixth place with a healthy stack of 69,990,000. Ruberto already placed 17th in the $1,100 Open during this series and is already in the midst of another deep run here in Montreal. Other notable players that are looking to take down the title are Joseph Cheong (60,975,000), partypoker Team Online Pro Renato Nomura (58,925,000), Jason Duval (55,900,000), partypoker Sponsored Pro Richard Dubini (41,375,000), and the $10,000 No Limit Hold'em - WPT Championship Main Event winner Daniel Strelitz (48,850,000).
The blinds will resume on level 27 at 400,000/800,000 with a 800,000 button ante. The day is set to play as many 60-minute blind levels as it takes until the players are down to the eight player final table. Top eight will be moving onto Day 5 and will be guaranteed $215,000 with top three banking a million dollar payday and first place securing $1.4 million.
