Day 3 Completed

The 2015 WSOP Event #8: $1,500 Pot-Limit Hold'em began its third and final day Wednesday with 15 players remaining from the 639 who had entered.

David Eldridge held the lead to start the day, but by the time the final table of 10 was reached, German Paul Michaelis had moved on top as the only player over the one-million chip mark. With a $189,818 first-place prize and WSOP gold bracelet hanging in the balance, Michaelis almost went wire-to-wire, until high-stakes reg and now four-time WSOP final table participant Tom Marchese picked off his king-high bluff in a massive hand to snatch the lead away heads up.

Despite some heavy betting, Marchese couldn't push Michaelis off second pair three hands later, giving the lead back. Then suddenly, Marchese four-bet shoved {Q-Spades}{Q-Clubs} and Michaelis made the call to put him at risk with {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}. Marchese looked good to double up and take control in the battle for his first bracelet, but it was not meant to be, as the board ran out {K-Spades}{8-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{A-Clubs}, giving Michaelis a set.

Just a few days removed from a 1295th-place in the WSOP's Event #5: The Colossus $565 No-Limit Hold'em, marking his first WSOP cash, Michaelis won his first bracelet and collected his first six-figure poker score.
