![[user235800]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
Welcome to the ARIA Resort & Casino, and the 2018 Poker Masters for Event 3: $25,000 Pot-Limit Omaha.
Friday saw the kick-off of the 2018 Poker Masters live from the PokerGO Studio and Event #1 would see David Peters emerge victorious over the 69-player field to capture the $193,200 first prize. Event #2 took place on Saturday, and 50 players would take part in the Event #2: $50,000 No-Limit Hold'em that is now down to the final table of six players. On the way to the final table, Cary Katz captured his second Poker Masters cash before Dominik Nitsche bubbled the final table in 7th.
Brandon Adams would reach his second consecutive final table and be well positioned sitting second in chips. Jared Jaffee would hold the chip lead, while Daniel Negreanu, Jason Koon, Jake Schindler, and Bill Klein round out the other players that will be competing for the $400,000 first prize. Day 2 final table action will be live streamed on PokerGO, while updates will be provided right here on PokerNews once play begins at 12 p.m. (PDT).
