Day 3 & Final Table Highlights
Day 3 started with ten resilient contenders, but the quest for victory left many behind. Big names like John Racener, Daniel Negreanu, and Josh Arieh all fought valiantly but eventually fell short. It was Antonin Teisseire, the French player, who succumbed to Ryan Coon’s kings, wrapping up the unofficial final table of nine.
Despite his early struggles on day 3, Wryan Christopherson secured a spot in the top nine, only to be toppled by Coon’s river catch in a hand that went three-way.
Jason Bullock’s deep run was marked by an energizing aces confrontation, fueling his momentum. However, Matthew Parry’s hour of power at the final table ultimately ended Bullock’s streak.
Robert Mizrachi, a four-time gold bracelet winner in mixed games, began the day with a promising chip lead. His fortune took a downward turn, ending his run in 7th place.
Naor Slobodskoy, Israel’s representative, showcased determination but fell to Troha’s kings, securing the 6th position. Meanwhile, Matthew Beinner’s kings were outflanked by Troha, and Benjamin Voreland, the youngest player, was eliminated in 4th place.
Heads-up for the Win
Matthew Parry, despite his river calling ability, fell prey to aces cracked, exiting the competition visibly upset. Ryan Coon, who had initially entered as one of the short stacks, fought bravely but ultimately lost to Troha’s full house.
The six-hour-long Day 3 ended with Troha getting the last of Coon’s chips, marking an end to this intense and exciting PLO event.
