Karim-Olivier Kamal was our first casualty of Day 3. He started off as the second shortest stack of the night, and when he was sitting in the big blind and faced with an open-shove from Maxime Heroux in the small blind, he went with the hole cards given to him.
Maxime: 
Karim-Olivier: 
Karim-Olivier managed to take the lead on the 
flop, and kept it on the 
turn, but Maxime found the card he was looking for on the river as the dealer peeled the 
. Karim-Olivier collected $875 for his 27th place finish.
While this was happening, the other short-stack to start the day managed to double up twice to bring him back in the game. Jason Mottershead picked up 
just in time to double his 190K stack through John Palmer. A few hands later, he opened from late position and called off when Yan Nadeau 3bet shoved from the blinds. He tabled and was racing versus the 
of Yan. The flop and turn brought him no help, but a showed up just in the nick of time to score Jason another double-up, propelling him over 1 million.
Yu Chen scored a double-up as well, as he open-shoved with 
and found a call from Rami Rached in the big blind, who held 
. Yu found a river straight on the 
board to jump up over a million, crippling his opponent in the process. Rami has since found a triple up of his short stack and remains in the game.
On a different table, George Caragiorgas opened the action to 100K from early position, and called the all-in of Albert for just over 500K. George won the 7-figure pot with 
over , sending Albert to the rail in 26th place to collect $875.
Moments later we saw Dylan Thimothy Maille Thibault open-shove a 10bb stack from early position. George Kazarian asked for a count and then slid some chips forward, which were returned to him with interest as his overcame Dylan’s 
.
Although Mike Mirand showed up late and missed the first few hands, he has made the most of it since as he has doubled his stack twice already.
