$1,650 WPO Championship (Re-Entry)
Level 20: 5,000/10,000 with a 1,000 ante
Players Remaining: 37 of 489
We returned to the tournament floor after posting the bubble information and found Ryan Van Sanford seated next to Moe Affaneh. Van Sanford’s stack was significantly shorter than the last time we looked and many appear to belong to Affaneh now, with his 1.2 million.
Van Sanford moved all-in for 196,000 after Kevin Chan opened to 23,000 and the shove was called after a few moments.

Van Sanford:
It was a tough spot for Van Sanford and he couldn’t catch up as the board ran out to send the former chip leader out.
Championship players are now on a 60-minute dinner break with 37 remaining. Next stop, the final table.
Kevin Chan – 990,000 (99 bb)
Ryan Van Sanford – Eliminated in 39th place ($3,668)
