The field quickly thinned at the start of the day, where 96 remained from the record breaking field of 6,313, as big names like PokerStars Ambassadors Rafael Moraes (82nd- �9,110) and Ramon Colillas (73rd - �9,110) as well as four-time WSOP bracelet winner Robert Mizrachi (37th �13,850) were eliminated.
British poker player Ivan Stokes (36th - �13,850) was also eliminated later in the day in a brutal bad beat at the hands of Mathias Siljander as the Finn rivered a full house with queens full of nines against Stokes��s three-of-a-kind. One-time WSOP bracelet winner Nikita Luther (�27,930) was the last woman standing and eliminated late in the day after a rollercoaster of a day where she was victim to Renat Bohdanov��s pocket kings.
Andrew Wilson ran cold to be eliminated at the end of the day (11th- �46,280) as he was chip leading at the final two table redraw. He lost a flip, then his ace-king lost to Ahmad Rehaime��s ace-five before ultimately losing another flip to Sinclair to be eliminated. Rehaime��s luck continued as he doubled through Sinclair as his ace-king hit runner-runner to survive against Sinclair��s aces.
Siljander was the final table bubble boy as his pocket jacks lost a flip to Rick van Bruggen��s ace-king which ended the day as the remaining players locked up at least �55,500 heading into Day 4.
Day 4 will commence on Sunday, August. 13 at noon local time on Level 37 with 56 minutes remaining at blinds of 300,000/600,000/600,000. The top prize of �600,000 and the trophy still await the eventual champion.
