Day 3 Concludes with Kevin MacPhee Leading Final 14 Players

Day 3 of the WPT Bellagio Elite Poker Championship has come to a conclusion with the 126-entry field reduced down to just 14 players heading into Day 4 on Friday.

Kevin MacPhee (pictured) is the tournament chip leader with 715,500 in chips, and is followed by Sean Winter (511,000), Cary Katz (422,000), and Danny Qutami (418,000). Among those still in contention include WPT Champions Club members Justin Young and Ryan Van Sanford.

The plan for Day 4 is to reach the official WPT final table of six players. The top prize of $378,879 (which includes a $15,000 seat to the WPT Tournament of Champions) awaits the eventual WPT Bellagio Elite Poker Championship winner.

A full recap of the day will be posted later tonight.
