Having been crippled in a previous hand, we just managed to squeeze through the crowd to see Jennifer Tilly move the last of her money in with 
before the flop, only to run into the 
of Anthony Valiente.
Neither hand improved when the dealer spread the board of 
and Tilly's now enjoying an early dinner break.

As we were doing a pass through the tournament floor, we noticed Noah Boeken had chipped up nicely to 85,000. Not far away, we also discovered what could be the biggest stack in the Pavilion White section. It contained approximately 130,000 worth of chips and belonged to Boyadjian Yervand, which is quite the name to type out; luckily for us, he goes by "Chris Limo."
We'll be sure to keep track of Limo's progress throughout the day and see if he'll be able to ride his big stack into Day 2.

Scott Clements was tanking on the river of a 
board, his opponent on the button had fired out 3,500 and Clements was debating the call. Finally he chucked out 4,000 chips to make the call but neither player wanted to show their hands.
Finally the button turned over the missed uber-draw that was 
and Clements scooped with 
to pick up a nice pot just before the dinner break.
The WSOP tournament staff just announced the official numbers for the 2011 World Series of Poker. A total of 6,865 players registered for this event, making it the third largest Main Event in WSOP history. A prize pool of $64,531,000 million was created, that will be distributed among the top 693 finishers.
First place . . . $8,711,956. Not too shabby considering some skeptics thought the number at this year's Main Event wouldn't surpass 5,000. We'll be entering the numbers in our system soon, so be sure to check out the "Payouts" tab in a bit.

Level 3 action brought to a close the registration period for the 2011 World Series of Poker. The official numbers were announced right before the dinner break and we're happy to report that this year's WSOP Main Event drew 6,865 entrants, making it the third largest in history. A prize pool of $64,531,000 was created, with over $8.7 million reserved for the winner.
We'll be on hiatus for 90 minutes, but in the meantime, read on to learn of all the interesting Level 3 developments.
First and foremost, let’s get to the list of eliminations that fell during Level 3. They included Frank Kassela, Jesse Martin, Nichoel Jurgens (formerly Nichoel Peppe), Melanie Weisner, Abe Mosseri, Tom Marchese, Cyndy Violette, Bertrand “ElkY” Grospellier, and Jennifer Tilly.
Not everyone was so unfortunate in Level 3. Alan Sternberg (86,000) and Andrew Chen (131,000) managed to add to their big stack; while Chris Limo (130,000) Douglas Smith (103,800), Justin Filtz (94,000), Joe Tehan (86,000), and Antony Lellouche (77,000) are all among the big stacks.

Given the large field, one would think another amateur will be joining this list come November; however, there are still plenty of pros left in the field to stop them.

Lars Bonding and Andrew Watson were heads up, and the dealer fanned 
. Both players checked. The two knuckled after the 
turned, but when the 
completed the board, Bonding led for 1,500. Watson quickly called.
Bonding tabled 
for a straight, Watson mucked, and Bonding took down the pot.
