Day 3 Completed

Congratulations to Stan Quinn, WSOP-C Harvey's Lake Tahoe Champion ($86,789)!

Stann Quinn - Champion!
Stann Quinn - Champion!

That's a wrap here at Harvey's Lake Tahoe. Congratulations to former IT management worker turned poker professional Stan Quinn for taking down the WSOP Circuit Main Event here in cold and snowy Lake Tahoe!

The final table began with Michael Traylor holding a big chip lead. Traylor had a lot of ups and downs all day long and eventually fell in third place. When he went out, things didn't take long at all between Quinn and John McNeilly.

McNeilly had battled all the way down to two players, but couldn't overcome the pocket jacks of Quinn with his {8-Clubs}{7-Hearts} after the money went in on the eight-high flop. McNeilly placed second just one year after he finished ninth in this same WSOP Circuit event. That's quite the two-year run for him, an excellent, excellent job.

Quinn is the only player at this final table that previously cashed in the WSOP Main Event. He did so this year, finishing in 549th place. He can now add this big win to his poker record. A whopping $86,789 goes to him for winning along with a seat in the $1,000,000 National Championship Freeroll at the end of the season. He also claims the shiny gold WSOP-C championship ring.

That wraps up PokerNews' coverage of this event from Harvey's Lake Tahoe. We've always got plenty of live reporting going on, so be sure to stay tuned to all of our coverage. Other than that, thanks for following along and hopefully we'll be seeing you on the tournament trail down the road!

John McNeilly Eliminated in 2nd Place ($53,625)

John McNeilly - 2nd place
John McNeilly - 2nd place

Stan Quinn opened to 150,000 from the button, and John McNeilly quickly called to head off to what would be the final flop of the day.

The dealer spread out {8-Spades} {3-Spades} {6-Clubs}, and McNeilly checked. Quinn, acting carefully, cut out 200,000 chips and slid them slowly forward. McNeilly instantly announced an all-in check-raise, and the call from Quinn meant nearly all of the chips in play were up for grabs. McNeilly was slightly covered, so it was he who was at risk as the cards were turned up:

McNeilly: {7-Hearts} {8-Clubs}
Quinn: {J-Hearts} {J-Spades}

Quinn's overpair was ahead for the time being, but he'd have to sweat. The turn {5-Diamonds} gave McNeilly a world of outs to double up into a commanding lead. He'd need any four, seven, eight, or nine to prolong the day.

River: {K-Spades}.

That's safe and sound for Quinn, and he has climbed to the top of this mountain to eliminate John McNeilly, the last man standing between him and Circuit gold.

So then, John McNeilly is our runner-up for this Main Event. He finished in 9th place in this same event last year, and he's done quite a bit better for himself this time around. His paycheck is worth $53,625, and we'll likely see him back here again next year to try once more for that elusive ring.

A special shout goes out to John's family who've been following along and sweating him via our updates all week. Thanks, McNeillys!

Michael Traylor raised from the small blind to 125,000. Stan Quinn reraised from the big blind to 375,000. Traylor moved all in for 840,000 and Quinn went into the tank for a few minutes. He made the call and Traylor announced that he was just making a move, tabling the {10-Spades}{4-Spades}. Quinn held the {A-Clubs}{9-Clubs}.

The flop came down {Q-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}{8-Clubs} and both players picked up a gutshot straight draw. The turn paired the board with the {J-Spades} and the river finished things off with the {K-Diamonds}. Traylor failed to get there and was eliminated in third place for $38,743.

Traylor Knocked Below One Million

Michael Traylor completed from the small blind and Stan Quinn raised from the big blind to 175,000. Traylor made the call and checked in the dark. The flop came down {K-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{6-Clubs} and Quinn bet 140,000. Traylor snap-called and checked in the dark again.

The turn added the {9-Clubs} to the board and Quinn fired 300,000. An insta-call came from Traylor again, but this time he didn't check in the dark.

The river completed the board with the {2-Hearts} and Traylor checked. Quinn checked behind and opened up the {K-Spades}{5-Clubs}. "You win, sir," said Traylor, mucking his hand.

Traylor dropped to 900,000 in chips while Quinn moved to 2.2 million.

McNeilly Shoves; Starting to Accumulate Chips

From the small blind, Stan Quinn raised to 150,000, and John McNeilly called from the big blind. The flop came {9-Clubs} {Q-Clubs} {8-Diamonds}, and Quinn continued out with 200,000 more chips. Without missing a beat, McNeilly announced a covering all in raise. The move took Quinn aback, and he took his time to think it over before letting McNeilly take it down.

McNeilly - 2.245 million
Quinn - 1.1 million

Traylor Picking Up the Pace

Michael Traylor has been pretty quiet for most of the level, just now opening up to play some hands.

On his last button, he opened to 160,000 for the first time in a while. Stan Quinn didn't much care; he went ahead and three-bet to what looked like 500,000 straight, and Traylor tank-folded.

The next time around, Traylor raised a bit more, 200,000 from the button. Quinn took a long pause and cut out chips once again, but this time he decided to surrender after a few minutes of thought.

Two hands later, Traylor once again opened the pot, this time making it 200,000 from the small blind. Quinn didn't seem to want to, but he passed and let Traylor take it once again.

McNeilly Likes His Hand

On the next orbit, Stan Quinn limped the small blind, and John McNeilly took a free flop from the big. It came {7-Spades} {2-Clubs} {8-Diamonds}, and Quinn made a small 50,000-chip bet. McNeilly raised to 175,000, and Quinn called.

The {6-Spades} on fourth street drew a check from Quinn, and he would quickly fold to a 225,000-chip bet from McNeilly.

McNeilly - 1.65 million
Quinn - 1.495 million
