Shortly after the break, Rodriguez found his luck begin to run dry. Bunch and Rodriguez both had about 5 million in front of them and Champlin held the other 21 million. The tournament came out of its second break of the day to Level 30, with blinds of 100,000/200,000/200,000. Three players remained and play continued for over an hour with Champlin, Bunch, and Eluterio Rodriguez trading chips back and forth with no significant fluctuation. He then knocked out Jeremy Liu after Liu shoved ace-eight into his ace-queen, holding to surpass the 20 million-chip mark.

Viet VoĬhamplin picked up right where he left off when play resumed, picking off a bluff from Bunch, who was in second place through most of the day, to create even further separation in the counts between the two players. Kris Burchfield (7th place - $44,691), James Jewell (6th place - $57,318), and Viet Vo (5th place - $74,995) all fell victim to Champlin’s prey over the next hour, leaving just four players in the tournament by the first break of the day. It was then time for Champlin to pull away. Jim Harris (8th place - $35,273) was next to go after spending his short-lived Day 3 on the short stack. It wasn’t long after that before Offult became the ninth-place finisher after getting her stack in with Big Slick on an ace-high flop versus the ace-queen of Champlin, only to find it second-best after Champlin hit not just one queen, but two as the turn and river gave him a full house, the elimination, and the chip lead. The final table of nine was then reached and the players drew new seats. A quick triple up graced his presence to start the day but then he lost a coin flip with pocket threes to Day 2 chip leader Bunch’s ten-nine when Bunch hit a queen-high straight on the turn. He had entered the day with 125,000 after losing almost his entire stack on the last hand of Day 2 when he doubled up Katherine Offutt running ace-king into her pocket aces. Chuck Barker (10th place - $24,338) became the first elimination of the day just a few hands after play began.

The day started with 10 players returning with their eyes on the $300,005 up top.
