Eugene Katachalov who won the WPT Five Diamond and Roberto Romanello that of Bratislava have been eliminated and therefore said goodbye to their second title of the circuit but they were paid for their place. Among the qualified for the Day 4, only Konstantin Tolokno, Goswin Siemsen, Norbert Szécsi, Morten Christensen, Benjamin Wilinofsky and Ognjen Sekularac were qualified for the final table.

The first player to leave the table was Norbert Szécsi ($ 64,318), eliminated by Wilinofsky.
