Day 3 of the Wynn Summer Championship started with 64 players from a field of 1,170 players still in the action. By the end of the day, just nine remained.

With $11,466,000 in the pot, the top two spots are both worth over a million, with more than $1.8 million reserved for the first-place finisher.

Linglin Zeng led the field at the start of the day, but by the end of the day Zeng was fourth in chips. The chip lead had passed to Jans Arends with 15,225,000 in chips.

Arends has nearly double the next biggest stack at the final table. That stack is 8,475,000 and is held by Mario Quilez.

Behind Quilez is Giorgii Skhulukhiia who bagged the third biggest stack of 8,025,000.

The final table will return later today to play down to a winner.

The $25,400 High Roller at the Wynn Summer Classic attracted a rarified group of just 25 players.

Adrian Mateos won the event after two days of action. With $625,000 in the prize pool and just four places paid, the top prize was $267,185.

Mateos is already the 5th on The Hendon Mob's All-Time Money list with $67.3 million. So even a prize of this size is just a drop in the ocean.

Mateos took first by defeating Jovan Kenjic heads up to earn the trophy. Kenjic earned $162,500 for second place.

The other two players to cash were Vladimir Minko, who earned $110,940 for coming third, and Barak Wisbrod, who earned $84,375 for fourth.

Samuel Ju Claims the $1,100 NLH Turbo Trophy

Last night's $1,100 No-Limit Hold'em Turbo event at the Wynn Summer Classic had 158 entrants, easily surpassing the $100,000 guarantee with $154,050 in the prize pool.

There were some big winners, but none bigger than Samuel Ju, who earned $39,507 and the Wynn replica trophy after defeating Oscar Romero Cobos heads-up for the title. The runner-up didn't get the trophy, but he can't feel too bad after having won $23,721.

Zhicheng Miao came in third place for $16,934, followed by Sara Ralston receiving $12,924 for third place, and Alan Merdita rounded out the top five with a $9,742 score.

Another day, another high roller run for the great Adrian Mateos, one of the greatest no-limit hold'em players in history.

Mateos, who won the $250,000 Super High Roller at the World Series of Poker (WSOP) earlier this month, showed up at the Wynn Summer Classic on Thursday to compete in the $25,800 High Roller. He hasn't won this one, yet, but he did bag the second-largest stack out of four remaining players.

Mateos will enter today's action with 1,615,000 chips, not far off leader Jovan Kenjic, who will come back with 1,805,000. Vladimir Minko (970,000) and Barak Wisbrod (620,000) will return to action with the short stacks.

Someone is going to win over $1.8 million in a couple days in the Wynn Summer Championship, and two players will get over $1 million.

The $10,400 buy-in event at the Wynn Summer Classic is moving on to Day 3 today with $11,466,000 in the pot from a field of 1,170 players. While it may be too early for anyone remaining to get too excited about the potential massive payouts, no one is better positioned than Linglin Zeng out of the final 64 players.

Zeng, a popular player on Hustler Casino Live, bagged the biggest stack at 2,505,000 last night. But the lead is razor thing over her two nearest competitors — Aleksandr Shevliakov (2,490,000) and Guy Benshushan (2,470,000).

Action resumes at noon PT on Friday, and we're going to see some massive payjumps as the day progresses. The Wynn Summer Championship will play down to a winner on Sunday.
