Chips were unbagged and tournament staff put cards in the air for Day 3 of the WPT Tampa Championship with 40 players remaining.

Our two biggest stacks, Jonathan Jaffe and Peter Vitantonio, began the day sitting side-by-side. That’s a lot of chips in two spots. In another bit of coincidence, we have two Tampa champs sitting next to each other as well.

Matt Leecy won the 2021 Tampa Poker Classic Main Event earlier this year and Stephen Brite capture the $1,100 Six-Max PLO title last week at a tough final table.
