We didn't catch all the betting, but Chris Moorman was all in preflop holding 
against the 
of McLean Karr. The 
provided Moorman an open-ended straight draw, but neither the 
turn nor the 
river filled it. Moorman was eliminated in 18th place for $25,348.

Action folded to a short-stacked Thorsten Schafer in the cutoff and he out in a standard raise. Both the button and small blind folded, but Jason DeWitt pushed back with a reraise from the big blind. Schafer then moved all in, DeWitt called the additional chips, and it was time to show their holdings.
Schafer: 
DeWitt: 
Schafer was sharing a king with DeWitt, but his queen was far behind his opponent's ace. The 
flop was disaster for Schafer as it paired DeWitt's ace. The 
turn and 
river changed nothing and Schafer's day came to an end in 17th place.

McLean Karr is keeping himself busy at the table this afternoon. Karr reraised Gary Rabin preflop to get Rabin's stack all in. Karr tabled 
and needed to best Rabin's 
.
Board: 
Karr paired his queen and Rabin's tournament was over. Karr is up to 560,000.
Amir Lehavot opened under the gun for 26,000 and received a call from Owen Crowe in the hijack. Tommy Vinas then made it 81,000 to go from the button, Lehavot folded, and Crowe popped it to 281,000. Vinas out in yet another raise and Crowe called off for around 390,000 total.
Crowe:
Vinas: 
Crowe had picked the wrong time to limp-raise as Vinas held the ever-so-beautiful pocket rockets. Crowe was at risk and looking for a jack, but the board ran out a rather bland 
. Crowe was eliminated in 15th place while Vinas extended his chip lead.

Images from the rest of the runners
Now that we're down to 14 players, the action seems to have hit a wall. The first two levels of Day 3 saw 13 eliminations, which was nearly half the field. Now that the stacks are a bit deeper, we expect that the elimination will be a little more evenly space.
The good news is that the players are on their first 20-minute break of the day, allowing them a little time to catch their breath from the last two hours of excitement!
Right before the end of the level, Eric Cloutier, Jason DeWitt and Sam Stein got into a hand that lasted well into the break. Cloutier opened for 30,000 from under the gun, DeWitt raised to 80,000 from the cutoff and Sam Stein bumped it to 210,000 from the button.
Cloutier got out of the way and DeWitt went deep into the tank. And by deep we seven full minutes of nothing. Stein kept his stare down at the table and DeWitt rocked back and forth in his chair. Finally he folded and they could go on break.
