Paris WPT Day 3 - Live Update

[Djinn]

Hello again from my table (yes, table!) in the Aviation Club.  I am here in plenty of time for once and am looking forward to bringing the action from the last 27 players in the Grand Prix de Paris direct to you, from here, via the web.  With pictures.  And Snoopy.

There's no sign of the players at the moment, as I'm sure they need every minute of their sleep after yesterday's lengthy battle - and we needed to recover ourselves from the tension of the day, the high drama of the bubble (ref. Paris WPT Day 2 - Live Update    ) and staying up until 8:30am for breakfast with an odd assortment of high-rolling Scandies, intoxicated American ladies and players that just couldn't drag themselves away...

But enough of that, it's back to securing my internet space, and familiarising myself with the quickest way in and out of the Final Room, which judging from last year will have its only entranceway 5-deep with spectators...

I'll post the chip counts and prize structure as reported yesterday (many thanks to Danafish who once again went beyond the call of duty and wrote up the final counts as soon as Sabine appeared with them - 5am) and then it's thumb twiddling and background photography and running back to the hotel to get my power adapter for this Updater...
