Nine Remain in Search for the partypoker MILLIONS South America Main Event Champion
Only nine players remain out of the 456 entries that were made live and online. Daniel Rezaei holds a massive chip lead as he has 30% of the chips in play. Rezaei was one of the online players that got through to Day 3 after bagging in the online Day 1+2.
Rezaei can easily have his biggest cash to date in this tournament. His biggest cash right now, according to the hendon mob, came in this exact tournament last year when it was held in Rio de Janeiro. Rezaei finished 9th last year and that won him $100,000. He needs to finish 7th or higher in this year’s tournament to improve on that score and the first-place prize is of course a wonderfull one million US dollars.
The other players that take their seats today are Fabio Colonese (65,300,000), Pablo Silva (58,400,000), Fabian Gumz (52,800,000), Day 2 chip leader Andres Viola (52,400,000), Sergio Luis Di Pego (41,800,000), Rafael Caiaffa (26,000,000), Pedro Madeira (17,100,000), and partypoker PRO Dzmitry Urbanovich sits on the short stack with (4,300,000).
Gumz had a recent six-figure score up in North America when he finished runner-up in a WPT event. Gumz also won $115,150 finishing third in the Devilfish Cup about four months ago.

They will start in level 25 with blinds at 600,000/1,200,000 and a button ante of 1,200,000. The live coverage on PokerCentral will be delayed, just as the live stream, to avoid spoiler.
