Razvan Gherghe opened to 35,000 from early position, leaving just 4,000 chips behind. Both Josef Schusteritsch from middle position and Georgios Vrakas from the button called.
The trio saw the 8♦4♣K♣ flop, and all of them checked. The turn brought the 4♠, and Gherghe moved all in for his remaining 4,000 chips. Schusteritsch called, but Vrakas raised to 50,000, forcing Schusteritsch to fold.
Razvan Gherghe: 2♦2♣
Georgios Vrakas: A♥4♥
Gherghe needed a deuce on the river to win against his opponent’s trips, but the river came J♥, and Gherghe was eliminated from the tournament.

The action picked up with both players’ cards flipped in front of them.
Lucjan Jankowski: A♥7♠
Georgios Vrakas: 4♠4♥
Jankowski’s tournament life was on the line, and he needed help to survive. The flop of 10♦2♥K♥ didn’t provide any, but the Q♦ on the turn gave him some additional outs. However, the 9♥ on the river wasn’t one of them, and Jankowski was eliminated from the tournament. Vrakas, meanwhile, is now edging closer to the million-chip mark.

Julian Salvesen moved all in from middle position for 100,000. Action folded to Ken Oberlieben, who, after confirming the exact count, announced all in as well. The big blind folded, and the players revealed their hands.
Julian Salvesen: A♣A♠
Ken Oberlieben: 7♣7♥
Oberlieben was far behind, but that changed when the dealer revealed the 2♦7♠J♦ flop. Salvesen needed one of the two remaining aces in the deck to stay alive, but the 5♦ turn and K♠ river provided no help, and he was eliminated from the tournament.

The action folded around to Paul Runcan in the small blind, who shoved to put Luka Bojovic to the test in the big blind. Bojovic only had around 60,000 in his stack and put himself at risk after he took a peek at his cards.
Paul Runcan: J♥3♥
Luka Bojovic: Q♠10♥
Bojovic needed to double up to survive as he was one of the shortest stacks in the tournament, but fell behind on the J♣7♣4♥ flop as Runcan paired his jack. A 6♣ on the turn didn't offer Bojovic any more help, and the K♠ river meant he was eliminated in the final level of Day 3.

Thomas de Rooij opened the action from early position to 20,000, and Hang Xu moved all in from the cutoff. Action folded to Mariusz Golinski in the small blind, who also moved all in. De Rooij folded.
Hang Xu: A♥Qx
Mariusz Golinski: A♠A♦
Xu was in a tough spot but found a glimmer of hope when the J♥2♦K♦ flop gave him a gutshot straight draw. Unfortunately for Xu, the 7♠ turn and 3♥ river brought no help, and he was eliminated from the tournament.

Action was on the flop on a board of 9♣A♦3♣ and Rama Mulaj checked. Thomas de Rooij made a bet, then Mulaj check-raised all in for 272,000.
DeRooij made the call and flipped over A♣4♣ for a pair of aces with nut flush draw. Mulaj had K♦K♠ for pocket kings.
The turn was the 4♠ and river the Q♣ and DeRooij further improved to a flush, not that he needed it. He won the pot and Mulaj was eliminated from the tournament.

Stefan Reiser got his last 100,000 into the middle with Georgios Vrakas making the call to try and bust him.
Stefan Reiser: K♥K♣
Georgios Vrakas: A♣10♣
Reiser was in great shape to double-up with Cowboys, that is until the dealer fanned out a flop of 10♠A♥8♣ to give Vrakas two pair. The rest of the board ran out 8♠8♥ and Reiser was out of the tournament.
