It's crunch time for the team from 888poker as everyone with a chip and a chair tries to find the money on Day 3 of the 2024 WSOP Main Event.

The 888poker docuseries has been following the team of Vivian Saliba, JaackMaate, Aaron Barone, Nick Eastwood, and Lucia Navarro as they chase the ultimate dream at the WSOP. Eastwood and Navarro are already out, but three players are still in the hunt for the $10 million top prize. 

The three survivors — Saliba, Barone, and JaackMaate — need to navigate a difficult Day 3 field while they try to cross the money bubble. 

It's a day of tough seat draws and Barone, who found himself at a table with Phil Ivey, tried to get it in against the G.O.A.T. with pocket fives. "If I get called by Phil Ivey and I lose the Main Event, that's f*ckin awesome! That's not a bad story." 

Will Barone get his big WSOP moment and a call from Ivey? Which of the final three 888poker players can cross the money bubble for a Main Event payday? Check out the video above for more.
