Play will start with about 26 minutes left in Level 39 with blinds at 600,000/1,200,000 and will be streamed on PokerGo on a one-hour delay. Each remaining player has locked up a payday of at least $301,346, but all eyes are on the top prize of $1,125,141 and WSOP gold bracelet.
Tyler Gaston sits at the top of the leaderboard with 64,000,000 chips after a brilliant Day 3, in great position to acquire his first ever WSOP gold bracelet.
