The bicentennial mark was nearly reached in Wednesday's Event #3: $360 NLH With $100 Bounties, as 196 entries generated a total prize pool of $40,180. When all was said and done, Patrick Michael and Andrew Dykeman agreed to a heads-up chop with Michael taking the top prize of $9,003 and Dykeman earning $7,886.
A trio of Jacksonville residents in Louis De Pasquale, Andrew Simmonds, and Trammell Evans took the next three places, with Lee Pohle, Shane Scorza, and Russell Dugger also making it to the final table. All eight earned at least a four-figure payday for their efforts.
In total, 25 places were paid for the event, with Michael Smith Jr. being the first to make it past the bubble to earn $301 before payouts jumped to $372 and increased every three places until the final table of nine was reached.

Chuck Tabor opened to 40,000 in middle position and Scott Stewart called in the hijack. Tommy Tran three-bet shoved for 400,000 on the button and Tabor thought for a while before folding. A second later, Stewart called and Tabor showed that he folded for a quick second.
