The first level of Day 3 has been completed, and the remaining 2,833 players are going on their first 20-minute break of the day. Over 500 players have been eliminated so far. Here is a look at the highlights from Level 11:
Dario Dussan Guzman shoved for 24,000 from early position and Loni Hui called from middle position with a covering stack to put him at risk.
Dario Dussan Guzman: K♣J♥ 
Loni Hui: 8♥8♦
Guzman was a big favorite after making top pair on the 9♣4♦J♣ flop but Hui improved a set on the 8♠ turn. Guzman was drawing dead and made his exit after the A♣ river fell.
Action folded around to Jessica Teusl on the button, and she moved all in for her last 15,000. Joseph Henry made the call from the big blind to put her at risk.
Jessica Teusl: A♣9♣
Joseph Henry: A♥6♠
Teusl had the better ace, but the board ran out A♦2♣4♦6♦Q♠, pairing Henry’s six and giving him two pair. With that, Teusl was eliminated, while Henry stacked up a few more chips.
Gregory Zarefes kicked things off with a raise to 6,000 from early position. Romain Locquet then elected to three-bet to 24,000 from the small blind, which Zarafes called.
The dealer revealed the 2♦4♥K♥ flop and Zafares, not first to act, checked.
Someone at the table asked for a ruling on whether Zafares would be held to his check if the action didn't change. The dealer confirmed he would.
With this new information in mind, Locquet continued with a bet of 15,000.
Zarafes folded, prompting Locquet to say, "That was a weird situation".
Mario Rodriguez raised to 5,500 in early position and Harish Gadre called before Jack Bittker three-bet to 20,000 on the button. Rodriguez called and Gadre folded.
Rodriguez checked on the flop of J♠5♥Q♣ and Bittker sized down to 11,000. Rodriguez called. Rodriguez checked again on the 6♥ turn and Bittker checked back.
Rodriguez checked once more on the 9♥ river and Bittker bet 45,000. "Ace-king of hearts, really?" Rodriguez said before calling.
Bittker showed aces with A♦A♣ and it was good to win the pot.
As the hand played out, a dealer named Lynn from Texas rotated into the table and told Doug Polk about the time she gave him a hard time at The Lodge in Austin during a $50,000 added Ladies Tournament. Polk remembered but it took him a moment.
"Do you remember when I harassed you in your room?" Lynn asked.
"In my room?" Polk reacted. "Oh at The Lodge. I remember."
Michael Garner opened to 5,000 from the button with 10♠9♣ and Leon Sturm called from the small blind with A♦10♥.
The flop came 7♣A♠K♣ and Sturm checked. Garner bet 3,000, Sturm check-raised to 9,000 and Garner called.
Sturm bet 14,000 after improving to trips on the A♣ turn. Garner raised to 30,000 and Sturm called.
On the 2♠ river Sturm checked, Garner bet 40,000 and after taking a couple of minutes to consider his options Sturm folded the best hand.
In a preflop contest between two short stacks, Ainiwaer Aierpati looked up Robert Grossglauser and had three outs to deal the final blow in the following showdown.
Robert Grossglauser: J♥J♠
Ainiwaer Aierpati: K♣J♣
The A♦5♥3♥K♠9♣ board delivered the blow on the turn and this locked up the third elimination on this table for today.
Gyeongyeong Lee raised in early position and was met with an all-in from David Macisaac in the big blind. Lee called, and the players turned their cards over.
David Macisaac: A♦10♥
Gyeongyeong Lee: 7♠7♣
Macisaac flopped best on the A♠6♥K♣ flop, and retained his lead on the 6♠9♣ runout, earning himself a double up
