Sean Kraper moved all in for 64,000 from under the gun and Donnie Peters called in early position. In the hijack, Michael Comisso moved all in for 124,000 and Peters called to put them both at risk.
Sean Kraper: 9♦9♣ 
Michael Comisso: K♥K♠
Donnie Peters: Q♥Q♠
Comisso looked set up to win the pot as the board ran out 3♣10♠4♣J♦, but the river Q♦ gave Peters the set of queens to send both of his opponents to the rail.
Oliver Entine opened to 10,000 in early position and Ibrahim Senoussi three-bet to 30,000 on the button. Entine four-bet to 70,000 and Senoussi by five-bet jamming to send Entine into the tank with his remaining stack of around 150,000.
Senoussi called the clock and Entine called as the seconds wound down.
Oliver Entine: Q♥Q♦
Ibrahim Senoussi: A♥J♣
There would be no sweat as the flop landed 5♠5♦Q♣ to give Entine queens full and the 7♠ turn had Senoussi drawing dead before the 7♦ river confirmed a double for Entine.
Bilguun Odgerel opened the action with a raise to 8,000 from middle position, and Fernando Rodriguez made the call right behind. Marc Fiorentino, sitting in the hijack, turned up the heat with a three-bet to 32,000. Hye Park wasn’t backing down and responded with a four-bet to 80,000 from the button.
The action folded back to Fiorentino, who wasted no time moving all in. Park went into the tank, but after some thought, he decided to lay it down.
Fiorentino’s aggression didn’t stop there. Just a few hands later, he finished the job by eliminating Rodriguez, who had started Day 3 fourth in chips, firmly establishing himself as one of the dominant players at the table.
Kathy Liebert raised from under the gun and Damian Salas three-bet to 27,000. Matthew Belcher called from the small blind and Liebert then pushed all-in for 183,000 total. Salas asked for an exact count and folded while Belcher reluctantly called.
Kathy Liebert: A♦K♦
Matthew Belcher: Q♦Q♣
The A♣10♣2♣ flop propelled Liebert into the lead but she needed to dodge clubs and queens. Nothing changed on the 4♥ turn and the 2♦ river kept Liebert in the mix.
There were roughly 25,000 chips in the pot on a flop of 7♦A♠4♦, Michael Franklin who was on the button bet 9,000, Nick Eastwood in the big blind called.
Eastwood decided to lead when the 7♣ paired on the turn, Franklin snap-shoved for 57,000, Eastwood asked for a count and called after confirmation.
Michael Franklin: A♣K♥
Nick Eastwood: 8♣7♥
The 6♣ on the river eliminated Franklin from the tournament.
Frank Servidio opened to 10,000 and Mario Rodriguez three-bet to 28,000. Servidio four-bet to 60,000 and Rodriguez five-bet shoved.
Servidio called and was all in for 145,000.
Frank Servidio: A♠A♣
Mario Rodriguez: K♥K♣
The board ran out Q♣10♠7♣Q♥10♣ and Servidio doubled up.
Steven Flores manoeuvred his stack of 32,500 all in preflop versus Chad Layne, both players playing from late positions.
Steven Flores: A♠A♥
Chad Layne: A♦K♣
Flores pleaded with the dealer not to deliver a bad beat.
It was a sweat, though, as the dealer fanned out a 10♥9♣J♠ flop.
The turn 6♠ and river 3♠ kept it safe for Flores, though, earning him a double up.
Kharlin Sued opened the action with a raise to 8,000 from early position, and William Fife responded with a three-bet to 21,000 from middle position. Action folded back to Sued, who quickly moved all in. Fife asked for a count, and after the dealer confirmed 67,000 total, he made the call.
Kharlin Sued: A♥K♦
William Fife: A♦Q♣
Fife was dominated, but found a glimmer of hope on the paired 3♦3♠9♥ flop. That hope vanished with the K♥ on the turn, giving Sued top two pair. The 6♣ river sealed it, and Sued secured a much-needed double-up to stay in the game.
Having defended the big blind against the button raise of Chih-Wei Fan, Dominick Santalucia then got it in after the Q♦J♥2♦Q♠ turn with the 10♦9♠ for a straight draw. Fan held a marginal lead with 5♦5♣ but the 8♦ river improved Santalucia to the straight for the double worth 78,500.
Vanessa Kade opened to 8,000 from early position and Will Kassouf three-bet to 26,000 from middle position. Michael Nelson four-bet to 57,500 from the hijack and Kade folded J♠9♠. Kassouf five-bet shoved, covering Nelson who had 127,000 behind and Nelson called, putting himself at risk.
Michael Nelson: A♦Q♦
Will Kassouf: A♠K♠
Nelson was dominated with a smaller ace and he failed to improve on the 9♣4♠9♥J♣6♦ runout, resulting in his elimination while Kassouf more than recouped the chips he had recently lost.
