Day 3 Highlights
Igor Kaufman started Day 3 as the chip leader and he was joined near the top of the leaderboard by PokerStars Ambassador Parker Talbot. Talbot continued his run for part of the day – at one point crossing 7,000,000 in chips – but he fell back to the pack throughout the later parts of the day and before he bounced back to finish with a bag of 6,475,000 for Day 4.
Kaufman also remains in the tournament thanks to a run that started early when he took out Dionysios Kartsampas in Level 26. The Day 2 chip leader was behind after Kartsampas flopped a better pair of aces, but the turn brought two pair for Kaufman – sparking a run that ended with a bag of 7,675,000 for Day 4.
Among the other big stacks at the end of Day 3 are Ahuja, Smadga, and James. Smadga was the Day 1e chip leader and he continued to climb on Day 2 before his big Day 3 left 19,875,000 in the bag. Ahuja built his stack steadily throughout the day before a big run in the late levels gave him 15,325,000 for Day 4.
James also went on a late run, capped off with the elimination of Rolando Camardese in the last level of the night. He will return for Day 4 with 15,525,000. Carmardese had a run of his own throughout the day, thanks in part to a big pot in a hand with Catalin Pop. Pop called all three streets just to see Carmardese turn over a turned straight to take a bit pot.
Others that will return include Louis Nyberg, Tommy Nguyen, Hanseok Ko, Lucien Cohen, Lucas Silva Rocha, Kimmo Kurko, Mathias Haugen, and Day 1g chip leader Benjamin Tessier.
Action will continue on Sunday at 12:30 p.m. in Level 33 with blinds at 125,000/250,000/250,000. The plan is to play down to a final table and bag up to return for a live-streamed finale on Monday.

¡Vamos, Vegas! Sergio Perez Races Down the Strip in Red Bull F1 Promo
Nível 32
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
The Oracle Red Bull Formula One racing team released a promotional video ahead of November’s Las Vegas Grand Prix and it's an action-packed preview of what F1 has to offer when it invades the Strip this fall.
Readers might remember hearing about the race car tearing through the Wynn Las Vegas last November. It appears that was part of the production for Red Bull's epic race through Las Vegas.
Set over Set Collision
Nível 32
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
With the board reading K♣3♦J♣ and about 1,200,000 in the pot, Tommy Nguyen checked and Peter Tordai bet 300,000. Nguyen check-raised to 800,000 and Tordai made the call.
The turn came the 4♥ and Nguyen bet 1,675,000, once again receiving a call from Tordai.
On the 9♦ river Nguyen moved all in, covering Tordai's remaining stack of 3,800,000 and sending Tordai into the tank.
"Queen-Ten?" Tordai asked his opponent, who remained silent while Tordai weighed his options.
Ultimately Tordai flicked in the call. Nguyen tabled 3♠3♣ for a set of threes while Tordai revealed J♥J♠ for a set of jacks to take down a massive pot towards the end of the night.

Karadimos KO's Hinrichsen
Nível 32
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Andrew Hinrichsen moved his short stack all in from early position and found a call from Petros Karadimos in the big blind.
Andrew Hinrichsen: A♣K♦
Petros Karadimos: 9♣9♦
Hinrichsen was in a classic flip for his tournament life, but his odds dwindled after the 2♠5♦6♠ flop. Karadimos held the lead with his pocket pair after the 3♠ turn and 6♦ river, ending Hinrichsen's deep run.
