Sakelliou finishes in 13th place
Petros Sakelliou was running low on options as his stack fell below the 500,000 mark, but he woke up with a shoving hand and announced his all-in from middle position. It folded around to Rick Shamshoum in the big blind, who made the call for 5BB more.

Charles-Eric Benoit sent packing in 14th
Charles-Eric Benoit has seen his stack fluctuate quite a bit in this Day 3 of The Wild $150, however he was crippled in a recent hand, and although he managed to rebuild himself a little, he was eventually eliminated as his 
couldn’t overcome the 
of Said Michailidis.

Sawers wins a huge one
Kathy Sawers just took most of Christien Beaudoin’s chips and quite a few more than that, pushing her close to the 2M mark.
There was a UTG raise to 130K to start the action from Benoit Campeau. Kathy followed up by going all in for 820K, and Christien went all-in himself for 855K – building a very enticing pot for the three huge stacks left with live hands and some chips already committed in the form of the blinds.
One by one they folded, however, including Benoit, leaving just Kathy and Christien to battle it out.

Edward Hakim loses a flip to place 17th
Edward Hakim just lost a huge flip versus Stephane Chartrand, as he found his last 1 million in chips in the middle with versus 
. With no help on the board, Edward’s deep run ended in 17th place.

Late registration until 9:25!
Event 2 is well underway and there are already 130 players entered in the tournament with just under an hour of late registration remaining. Going by past experience, the total number is likely to grow quite a bit more, which will add up to an impressive prize pool for a single-day event at this buy-in.
Remember, players who late register get a full stack to play with, so there’s very little reason NOT to come and join the fun!
Lauzon grows some more
Philippe Lauzon started the day with just under 800K but after his double through Randy Khalil he was in a much better position and he has just eliminated Mario Page to move to among the chip leaders in Event 1.
Charles-Eric Benoit started the action by raising to 145K from middle position, following which Mario went all-in. Philippe didn’t have to think long before he went all-in for more, and Charles-Eric got out of the way.

Final two tables
We’ve just lost Marie Tran in 19th place, which brings The Wild $150 down to it’s final two tables. Taking advantage of an unopened pot, Marie moved her last ~10 big blinds from the small blind. Unfortunately for her, she ran into a brick wall, as her 
was matched up versus the of Edward Hakim in the big blind. She burst out in laughter when the dealer rung out a board of 
, and made her way to the cashiers with still a smile on her face.

Lauzon doubles through Khalil
By the time we got to the table it looked like a pretty straight forward situation: a relatively short-stacked Philippe Lauzon was all-in with against much-greater-stacked Randy Khalil, who had turned over .
The community cards didn’t cooperate, at least as far as Randy was concerned: gave Philippe a gutshot draw, and though the on the turn didn’t help, the on the river certainly did. Randy shipped 705K to his neighbour to his right on the hand.
Siamak is the first to fall
Local player Siamak S has been the first player eliminated on Day 3 of The Wild $150.
Siamak S
Siamak was on the button, and in the fateful hand Christien Beaudoin open shoved his ~765K stack from under-the-gun. Action folded around to the button, and Siamak went all-in for less (~315K). Olivier Millet thought for a few seconds but elected to fold.

Christien’s dominant hand just got better on the flop of , and although the 
removed any chance that Siamak could win, it did add chop outs to the mix. It was not to be. The river was the and Siamak was eliminated in 24th place ($800).
Just one hand later, Olivier was also eliminated when his 
couldn’t draw out against Stephane Chartrand’s flopped set (holding 
) on a 
board. The didn’t bring the flush and Olivier was out in 23rd ($800).
Since then, we’ve also lost Pascal Destines, Roman Mikhailov, and Mathieu Gagniere.
