Even after doubling up twice, Jackson Spencer was still relatively short-stacked when he moved all in preflop against Taylor Black who called to put him at risk.
Jackson Spencer: 6♠9♣
Taylor Black: K♣10♦
The runout of 7♠10♣4♦4♠5♣ failed to save Spencer and he was sent to the rail in 15th place.
Jackson Spencer opened to 100,000 and then Lee Markholt three-bet to 250,000, which Spencer called.
On the flop of 4♥J♥8♥, Spencer moved all in and after using his last time bank, Markholt called for his tournament life.
Lee Markholt: Q♣Q♥
Jackson Spencer: J♠10♥
Markholt was well in the lead with his queens and superior flush draw, and the turn 3♥ instantly gave him the checkmark on the hand while the river 7♥ secured him the double.

Blinds: 25,000/50,000

Joshua Prager moved all in preflop against Casey McCarrel, who covered.
Joshua Prager: 8♠8♣
Casey Mccarrel: A♠J♦
Prager was in the lead with his pocket pair, and an eight came right in the window of the 8♦2♥A♥ flop to give him a massive lead. The runout of 10♥7♣ changed nothing and Prager was shipped the pot for a double.
Steven Ritchie opened to 80,000 preflop and was three-bet by Jared Jaffee to 200,000, which Ritchie called.
The flop came out 10♦K♥A♣ and Jaffee checked, Ritchie moved all in for 525,000, and Jaffee called to put him at risk.
Steven Ritchie: A♠10♥
Jared Jaffee: A♥J♣
Ritchie was in the lead with his two pair, and the runout of 9♦5♠ kept it that way to award him the double-up.
Jared Jaffee opened to 85,000 and was called by Casey McCarrel, but then Andrew Voor three-bet to 310,000.
Jaffee then responded by putting in the four-bet to 810,000 and received folds from both opponents for a nice pickup.
Level: 23
Blinds: 20,000/40,000

The 15 players remaining in Day 3 are now on their first 15-minute break of the day and will return to battle shortly.
The action folded around to Andrew Voor in the small blind who shoved on Steven Ritchie in the big blind. Ritchie looked down at his hand and quickly made the call to put himself at risk.
Steven Ritchie: 9♥9♣
Andrew Voor: J♠8♥
Ritchie just needed to hold with his nines to secure a double, and the runout was in his favor as it came 6♦8♠3♥A♣3♦ to win him the pot.
