Three Final Tables, Three Floors, 3 AM at the Horseshoe

It's past 3 a.m. at the Horseshoe and three separate daily Deepstack final tables are running simultaneously across the building.

Event #449 ($250 Deepstack), Event #453 ($400 Deepstack), and Event #456 ($200 Deepstack) have all hit their endgame at roughly the same hour. Twenty-five players total are still alive across the three events, and at least one of them will be holding a trophy before sunrise.

The $250: Ian Martin Leads With 2.58M

The $250 Deepstack (Event #449) is down to its final table of eight. Ian Martin, a U.S. player with $664 in prior WSOP cashes, sits on 2,580,000 chips — far and away the table's biggest stack. Brandon Schultz ($1,201 lifetime) and George Ramirez ($2,060 lifetime) both busted on the bubble in ninth and tenth, respectively. Philip John Walker, who traveled from Great Britain, went out eleventh.

The $400: Ioan Iosif and 830K

Event #453, the $400 Deepstack, also has eight remaining. The only reported stack belongs to Ioan Iosif, a Romanian player with $2,147 in lifetime earnings, who's sitting on 830,000 chips. Hai Guo (China), Cache Bouren (U.S.), and Tyler Steiner (U.S., $576 lifetime) round out the partial leaderboard. Phong Nguyen ($4,218 lifetime) was the final-table bubble in ninth.

The $200: Still Two Tables Deep

The cheapest event of the trio, Event #456 ($200 Deepstack), has the most work left — 17 players across two tables. Scott Stopa holds a reported 340,000 stack. Braden Pressman ($1,612 lifetime) is still in, as are Star Rising from the Philippines and Adrian Gray from Great Britain. Sam Farhad was the most recent casualty, busting twentieth.

Three buy-in levels, three final tables, one building, zero sunlight. These events should wrap before 6 a.m. PT.
