When Amirpasha shoved all-in for about 1.1M from the under-the-gun position, Douglas James, sitting on his immediate left, went all-in himself, counting a little bit less than a million in his own stack. When everybody had folded, they went to the board together.

Douglas James left in good spirits. His 9th place is good for a cool $3,650. From now on, pay jumps will be quite sizable. There will be a break in 15 minutes, which will allow us to bring you an inside look on the finalists’ counts.

Good job Douglas!

A few hands after the formation of the final table, Sean Burstein was dealt . With only a few hundred thousands left, he was pretty much forced to roll the dice against Anthony Payette’s . The board sent Burstein away.

He is our first final table casualty, but cashes $2,700 for his deep play.

Congratulations!

Tony Lei doubled Amirpasha Emami when the latter hit a king to beat Lei’s . That hand cost him about half his stack. 2 hands later, he went back to work with , but Walter Asatoorian’ found what he was looking for at the last second when the board was revealed.

Tony Lei busts in 11th, and our 10 finalists are now merging onto the $250 Frenzy final table. Players will take a break after this new level.

Below is the final table seating chart. Anthony Payette and Ruben Perceval are in control, with over 5 million each.

Steven Tripp could not catch a break in the first hour of the $250 Frenzy Day 3. He started healthy, but failed to find a decent spot. As a result, he was getting pretty short stacked, and his fell to Mounzer Awada’s . Awada found a set on the turn, burying Tripp. Tripp finishes 13th.

Moments after, it was Éric Gindon who was forced to leave the arena. He invested all with , but they were no match for Anthony Payette’s , who is now sitting on a monstrous stack. Guindon takes 12th, and leaves with $2,700 for his run. Great job!

Meanwhile, Ruben Perceval keep on taking small pots, and his own stack is swelling rapidly.

Marie-Josée, who had done a pretty good job at building a decent stack, pushed her stack with , but met Tony Lei’s , and could not find a 7 on the board. She was left with crums, and lost them on the following hand. She leaves in 14th place, good for $2,100. Well done!

Anthony Payette, who started the day with the most chips, had been somewhat quit so far in Day 3, but after performing the last 2 knock outs, has increased his count to over 4 million chips.

Jonathan G fell in 17th place and Sasan Mehrabian left in 16th. Play went on for a few minutes without any casualties, until Marie-Josée Duguay took out Zohrain Ladha in 15th.

Ladha cashed $2,100 for his performance, and that is the locked in amount for our remaining 14 players. Congratulations!
