The Event #3: $3,000 No-Limit Hold'em SHOOTOUT and the Event #4: $1,500 Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better are underway with some notable players still in.
As usual, the "Poker Brat" grabs all opportunity to catch another bracelet. He's already busted the $10,000 Super Turbo Bounty event but wasted no time to jump into the SHOOTOUT event, where he already advanced, after defeating Tony Dunst heads-up at the first table.
Some notable players, with the like of Main Event champ, Joe McKeehen, Eli Elezra, Chris Moorman or Adam Owen are still in the field and all of them looking to take down the $226,218 first prize and the prestigious bracelet coming with it.
