Only 30 players out of the original 1,086 entries still have a chance to win gold in Event #29: $2,500 No-Limit Hold'em. From a total prize pool of $2,443,500, the top prize up for grabs is $456,822. All players returning for Day 3 are guaranteed a minimum payout of $10,868 and the top five players will be receiving six-figure paydays.
Eddy Sabat is the overwhelming chip leader heading into Day 3 with a stack of 1,866,000. Though Sabat has had success in the WSOP, he is looking to win his first bracelet.

Tom Thomas is third in chips at the start of play with 861,000.
Several other top players are still in the field, including UK's Scott Margereson (712,000) and Chi Zhang (674,000), Giuseppe Pantaleo (568,000), Curt Kohlberg (376,000), John Dolan (305,000), Jonathan Abdellatif (252,000), and 2015 November Niner Federico Butteroni (236,000).
