Day 3 of Event #51: $3,000 No-Limit Hold'em Six-Max saw the final 35 players of a 1,043-player field return with the plan of playing down to a winner. The field managed to whittle itself down to the final two players, but an impromptu Day 4 will be needed to determine if it will be Ireland's Seamus Cahill or the United States' Justin Liberto who will walk away with the bracelet and the $640,711 first-place prize.

The former will hold 9.73 million in chips to the latter's 5.925 million when action recommences at 1:00 p.m. local time on Sunday.

Among those to fall on Day 3 and lay claim to a portion of the $2,847,390 prize pool were Timothy Adams (26th - $15,489), Amir Lehavot (23rd - $19,020), Rep Porter (19th - $19,020), Taylor Paur (18th - $19,020), Mohsin Charania (17th - $23,918), Jason Les (15th - $23,918), Stephen Chidwick (13th - $23,918), and Kiryl Radzivonau (3rd - $251,168).

According to updates from the event, Radzivonau fell on Hand #80 of the final table when he raised to 160,000 from the button and Liberto defended his big blind to see a flop of {q-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}. Liberto check-called a bet of 185,000 and the check-called one of 285,000 on the {2-Diamonds} turn. When the {5-Spades} completed the board on the river, Liberto checked for a third time and called when Radzivonau jammed for 1.24 million. Radzivonau tabled the {a-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} for a straight, but it was no good as Liberto held a six-high straight with the [4c6h[
