Vincent Benoit was down on his luck tonight. He couldn’t catch a break, and his 2-million stack dwindled down to just over 600K. In the end, his 3s were gobbled up by Douglas Best’s aces, who now counts over 7 million chips and is comfortably in the lead.

Jason Morin raised to 300K, and Sean called. Jason checked a flop that hit him hard, and happily saw Sean go all-in. He called.

Play is now underway in Day 3 of the Playground 500. Jason Morin finally got here, after missing about an orbit. During that orbit, Sean Edelenbos managed to increase his lead by about a million. He bought the blinds twice, and took half a million form Amin Majidi.
Sean raised a limper to 250K, and Amin made it 400K to go from the small blind. Sean called. On a king-queen-jack flop, Amin check-folded to a 400K bet.
The average showing only 22 big blinds, every blind counts.
Shortly after, Saad Badreddine shoved his king-jack from the under-the-gun-position, only to be called by ace-king.
12th place: Saad Badreddine – $4,300
