An exciting Day 4 of the World Series of Poker saw a livestreamed final table play out with two former WSOP Main Event champs going for bracelet number three. The 2009 champ Joe Cada pulled off the feat, winning Event #3: $3,000 No-Limit Hold��em SHOOTOUT after dispensing of 2015 champ Joe McKeehen in third and finally finishing off Sam Phillips heads-up, despite Phillips finding several doubles to stay alive three-handed and heads-up.

Looking ahead to Day 5, the events are starting to pile up. We got action, folks!


Event #4: $1,500 Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better

This one was originally scheduled to play down to a winner on Day 3 Saturday, but with the field size being a whopping 911 entries and with play slowing up late in the day, they were only down to four by the time ten 60-minute levels had transpired, meaning a Day 4 is in order.

The loan Frenchman Julien Martini starts the day off well in the lead with 3,720,000 worth of ammo, followed by Kate Hoang with 2,255,000. Hoang is looking for her first bracelet after a couple close calls, including eighth in last year's $10,000 Pot Limit Omaha Hi/Lo Championship and a runner-up finish in the 2016 Pot Limit Omaha Hi-Lo Split 8 or Better.

The two short stacks will be running on fumes with the blinds going up to 50K/100K, and they are William Kopp (440,000) and Mack Lee (425,000).

The first of the four to fall will take home $74,058, while the top three all receive six-figure scores, the highest being $239,771 for the winner. Catch all the updates through the finale here.

Event #5: $100,000 No-Limit Hold��em High Roller

The penultimate day of the $100K high roller will also get underway at 2 p.m., starting play with ten left, arranged across two five-handed tables. Saturday saw 49 of 97 return, but with the eight Day 2 re-entries and late entries which included none other than Phil Ivey, the total number got to 105.

The winner of Event #2: $10,000 Super Turbo Bounty, Elio Fox, entered the second day of play with the chip lead and managed to stay toward the top of the counts to end Day 3 second in chips with 10,180,000 behind leader Nick Petrangelo (13,460,000). Rounding out the top five are high roller crushers Stephen Chidwick (7,065,000), Jason Koon (6,190,000) and Fedor Holz (3,530,000).

The other remaining players still in contention are Aymon Hata (3,140,000), Chris Moore (2,960,000), Adrian Mateos (9,250,000), Andreas Eiler (2,130,000) and Bryn Kenney (1,600,000), all with plenty of room yet to maneuver.

All ten are guaranteed a payday of at least $240,265, with seven figures slated for the top three. The winner will receive $2,910,227.

The plan for the day is to play down to the final six, and stay tuned, because this will be a final table not to be missed �C even though Ivey will not be present as he busted short of the money. Besides the continuous live updates at PokerNews, you can catch Day 3 action on Poker Central��s Twitch channel starting at 3 p.m. and the finale is scheduled to live stream on PokerGO at 1 p.m. PT on Monday, June 4.
