United States Poker Championship at the Taj Mahal

The Taj Mahal and Borgata have dueling tournaments right now. The Taj has the USPC (United States Poker Championship) while the Borgata has its Poker Open, a World Poker Tour event. The Borgata's poker room was jam-packed and was leary about heading over to the Taj. However, it was nice to see the Taj Mahal filled to capacity especially considering it's Omaha Hi/Lo today.

This is the third day of the USPC. Here are the results from the first two days of the tournament.
