Scott Fischmann raised preflop, was reraised by the blinds and put in a forth bet, getting duly called.

The board came {K-Clubs}

and his opponent quickly moved all-in. Fischmann instantly called with {Q-Clubs}

but his opponent turned over {A-Spades}

for top trips, holding on a {6-Spades}

turn and

river.

The American goes out just a few spots before the money.

We joined the action with the board reading {7-Spades}

and Tommy Vedes in the small blind betting out 10,900. Peter Eastgate on the button looked very intense and made the call.

They saw a {3-Clubs}

river and Vedes thought about it for a bit before very daintily checking, tapping the table with a flourish. Eastgate remained intense, and bet 20,100. Vedes folded {Q-?}

, dominating Timoshenko's {8-?}

and knocking him out of the tournament.

A gentleman raised, only to eventually lay it down to a hefty reraise from JC Tran.

"I can beat {A-?}

," said Tran casually.

"That is exactly what I had," said his opponent.

Tran showed him pocket queens.

It's an early night for all our lucky Day 3 survivors -- we're done, and the bagging and tagging is underway. The board tells us that 111 players will be coming back tomorrow, of whom only 104 will be getting paid. Chip leader still seems to be Tommy Vedes. We'll see you at noon.
