Gus Hansen has already more than quadrupled his stack during Day 3. Hansen first doubled up in a flip when his pocket sevens held against ace-ten.
Another huge addition saw him rise through the provisional standing when Gregory Kary opened to 5,200 in middle position and Hansen flatted in the cutoff. Todd Comeens squeezed to 21,700 out of the small blind and Kary called. Hansen thought about the situation for a while and then he decided to join them to the flop.
It fell 
and Comeens didn't waste a second before pushing forward his remaining 165,000 or so. Kary quickly folded but Hansen said, "Alright," and flicked in a chip.
Comeens had 
but Hansen was ahead with 
. The rest of the board ran out 
and 
and Hansen eliminated Comeens, improving to 425,000.

Franklin Azevedo opened the action with a raise to 6,500 from early position and Adam White jammed his short stack for around 33,000 from two seats over. Once all other players at the table folded, Azevedo snap-called.

As the Main Event continues on and gets deeper and deeper, players may or may not be tempted to use their "one time." A poker staple of mythical proportions, only God knows the power it can have in swaying the fate of the cards.
However, Adam Friedman is dishing out some advice to players early on Day 3 on if and when to use your "one time."
"Don't use it," he said, quite adamantly. "You might need to use it two or three days from now."
"You get one per day though I thought," said Jeffrey Chang.
"No?!" said Friedman incredulously. "In any case, I haven't used my one time in seven years."
Elizabeth Montizanti just doubled up from the button through William Hill who was sitting in the cutoff.
Elizabeth Montizanti:

The board read 
for Montizanti to find a pair of treys on the flop and improve to two pair to stay alive.

Kelly Minkin, last year's Last Woman Standing (50th for $156,265,) was up on the Amazon stage to give the "Shuffle Up and Deal". She did so in her own special way; with a little rap. Almost the whole Amazon room clapped along to give her a beat.
With the button in Seat 9, the cards are now in the air for Day 3 of the 2019 World Series of Poker Main Event!
