WSOP 2013 Event #47 $111,111 One Drop High Rollers No-Limit Hold'em had a record turnout for a $100,000+ event with 166 entrants. 108 players returned on Day 2, many of the best known poker pros already missing and just 26 remained for Day 3, two eliminations short of the in the money finishes. While the tournament had been scheduled to last three days, four players were still in play when Day 3 was concluded, leaving the fate of the golden bracelet to be decided on Day 4.
Bill Perkins – 14,700,000
Anthony Gregg – 13,900,000
Chris Klodnicki – 12,000,000
Antonio Esfandiari – 9,200,000
Play started on Level 29 (50,000/200,000/400,000) and the first elimination of the day came about soon: Chris Klodnicki opened to 800,000 from the button, Antonio Esfandiari pushed all-in with 9,925,000 in chips from the BB and Klodnicki called. Esfandiari showed pocket eights and Klodnicki held A-9 to get a top pair with the ace on the river. Esfandiari was out in 4th place, failing to win the Little One tournament after his Big One victory. The $1,433,438 in prize money, however, should be more than enough compensation, setting his all time live tournament salary to over $25.5 million.
A mere four hands later, the heads-up was set: Anthony Gregg doubled up with A-J on Bill Perkins, who held A-T, before they were all-in again. Gregg tabled A-Q and Perkins showed A-5; while the flop brought a five, the river came a queen and Perkins was out in 3rd.
Anthony Gregg – 31,200,000
