Mario Lim had a tough start to the day as we wrote earlier, and although he fought hard to rebuild his stack and had some success at doing so, eventually he ran out of luck.
In his elimination hand, Mario open shoved and it folded around to Johnny Mazzaferro who didn’t seem thrilled but made the call anyhow.

Johnny: 
The flop brought a sweat for Johnny – 
but the turn and river – 
bricked and Mario was eliminated.

Players in today’s final table are playing on an RFID-equipped table encircled by 6 cameras that are putting together the images and backstage are host Tony Dunst and poker legend Mike Sexton providing the sound in the form of excellent commentary on the action as it unfolds.
The Live Stream has begun now and will remain on a 30-minute delay so if you don’t want “spoilers” in advance while you’re watching the stream you should close your other news sources.
Mario Lim started the day with a healthy stack but has taken a beating in two hands and is now the short stack at the table.
In one hand he doubled up Jason Comtois when his flush draw couldn’t drop to beat Jason’s pocket Queens. Just a few hands later he then doubled John Paul Tabago who shoved 
and hit a 4 on the flop to make the best hand.

Yesterday’s Day 3 was a gruelling day of poker as the field narrowed from the 39 who started the day to the eventual final table and then the final six who will play on the official WPT Live Stream final table today.

We just lost 2-time final tableist of the Montreal WPT Sylvain Siebert, as he just got into a betting war with Alexender Wong preflop. Alexender opened the pot from the cut-off to 240K, and was faced with a 3bet to 660K from Sylvain. He then 4bet to 1.2M, to which Sylvain responded with a shove of just over 2.7M. Alexender made the call, and seemed a little surprised to see what Sylvain went all-in with.
Alexender: 
Sylvain: 
The board was interesting for both of them, but mainly for Alexender, who flopped a full house on the 
flop. The turn gave Sylvain a little more life, bringing the , but the river 
sealed the win for Alexender, who is now hovering around the 8 million chip mark now.
We are now just one elimination of our official final table of 6.
