Even though the average stack coming back was around 30 big blinds, it took less than 90 minutes to reach the official final table. Travell Thomas (15th), Jacob Schindler (13th), and Arshin Gamini (12th) were among those who fell short of taking a seat at the final table.

Once the final nine made their way to the ESPN stage, it took only18 hands to lose the first player. Robert Brewer got his remaining chips in with tens against the king-queen of Mohsin Charania, and while he survived the flop, a queen on the turn sealed his fate.

From there, play lasted for nearly three more hours before Gareth Teatum busted in eighth place. It was once again Charania who played executioner after he woke up with A?J? against the A?3? of Teatum, who earned just over $40,000 for his efforts.

The two biggest names at the final table then hit the rail. The first to go was former EPT champion Zimnan Ziyard, who busted when his K?10? could not crack the 6?6? of Salvatore Dicarlo. Not long after, Charania suffered a brutal beat from Dicarlo when his flopped two pair was cracked by Dicarlo's rivered trips. Charania late fell in sixth place when Cascado��s K?Q? bested the A?10?.

On one of the last hands before the dinner break, Gregory Josifovski busted in fifth place. Josifovski held Q?7? against the 4?4? of Corey Harrison.Josifovski flopped and turned a slew of outs , but he wasn't able to catch up to Harrison. He took home just under $100,000.

There were four players left coming back from dinner, and Paul Spitzberg was the first elimination. Spitzberg check-raised on a flop of 10?7?6?, then called off the rest of his stack after Cascado shoved. Spitzberg��s K?6? was well behind the J?J? of Cascado, and wasn��t able to catch up, busting in fourth.

Three-handed play lasted 90 minutes, with Harrison and Dicarlo both doubling up at some point. Eventually, Dicarlo exited in third place. He open-shoved preflop with Q?4?, and was behind the A?6? of Harrison. The board ran out 6?7?3?9?J?, and Dicarlo bowed out to collect his $184,914.

Cascado versus Harrison

Harrison and Cascado battled heads up for nearly two hours, with both players holding big chip lead at some point. Cascado got short, then doubled up, but busted on the next hand. He moved all in preflop holding K?10?, and Harrison called with A?7?. The flop was a beauty for Harrison, coming J?A?4?. Harrison had to fade two outs, and he was able to do that, as the 6? and J?completed the board to give Harrison the title..

Event #25: $5,000 Omaha Hi-Low 8-or-Better

With his mom and dad in attendance in the early hours Sunday morning, Danny Fuhs delivered a great Father's Day present by winning his first WSOP gold bracelet in Event #25.

The third day of play began with 27 players taking their seats over the final three tables. The field was stacked as Dario Alioto, Eric Crain, Huck Seed, Paul Sokoloff, and Maria Ho returned for the third day of play only to fall in the day's earlier stages. Dan Kelly was also present during Day 3 play, as he has been for a vast majority of the series. Kelly was eliminated in 20th place, however, and unable to seize another final table appearance. Even so, it marked Kelly's seventh cash at the 2013 WSOP, and he's on par smash the all-time WSOP cashes record (11) before the summer is over.

Once the final two tables were reached, the players began dropping like flies. Todd Barlow, Alexander Kostritsyn, George Danzer, Shawn Buchanan, Julie Schneider, and Mike Matusow all narrowly missed out on making the final table. The field combined with ten players left for the unofficial final table. After over an hour of play, 2010 WSOP Main Event champion Jonathan Duhamel fell as official final table bubble boy.

The first two casualties of the final table also made appearances at last year's final table of this very same event. Bart Hanson was the first to fall and was unable to improve on his seventh place finish in 2012. The next to go was Ryan Lenaghan, who did manage to improve on his ninth place 2012 finish by scoring an eighth-place finish this year.

2009 WSOP Player of the Year Jeff Lisandro was the next go when he was forced to move his short stack all in from the blinds and ended up being chopped up by his opponents. Arthur Kargen and Viacheslav Zhukov were also remarkably short-stacked and were eliminated mere minutes after Lisandro's bust.

Four-handed play raged on for almost two hours until Brian Hastings became the next player to bust. Hastings fell at the hands of Robert Mizrachi, who despite earning the rest of Hastings' stack, found himself the next to go as the third-place finisher.

The heads up match between Fuhs and George raged on for several hours and even ended up going into an extra level at the end of the night. With the limits growing as time progressed, the two traded the chip lead back and forth several times. Finally, after returning from their final break of the night, Fuhs was able to pull away and scoop two big hands in a row to cripple George. A few hands later, George's tournament life was on the line and Fuhs' hand was able to hold. He was officially crowned the champion of Event #25.
