The Day 3 was also a theatre of astonishment of any kind and unexpected reversal. 294 players were presented in the Room Poker of Crown Casino of Melbourne for the beginning of this Main Event. Many experienced players had to leave the race prematurely to quote only Erick Lindgren, Tony G, Joe Hachem, daN Harrington, James Akenhead, Mark Your or Leo Margets. At the end of the Day 2, 83 players survived, they can dream to the $1.8 million reserved to the winner of the competition.
The Day 3 was cruel for some players of reputation as Howard Lederer but others players took advantage in this day and join the head. The Dane Gus Gansen is among those who knew how to profit this situation; he assembled a gold mine, more than 500,000 tokens. After this day 3, the field was cut to less than 50 players; Van Marcus and Barry Greenstein were eliminated.
