Derek Romanowsky went all in against Jesse Kertland and the latter made the call. Kertland had a rocky start to the day and had been on a downward trend up until this hand.
Derek Romanowsky: K♠10♣
Jesse Kertland,: A♥K♥
The flop brought the A♦9♠7♠ and a collective, "Ahhhhh....", as it would be a long way for Romanowsky to pull ahead. The turn closed the door on him, bringing the 4♦, and the river fell the 9♥, ending Romanowsky's run here in the Colossus.

Action is joined with Darrick Arreola leading from the small blind to 2,500,000 on a board of 2♥4♦5♣8♣. Ghadi Akari is in middle position and goes into the tank. Eventually he lands on a flat call. Ryan Ramsdell is the third player in the hand and was all in before the turn.
The river is the 4♣ and Arreola snap checks. Action was back on Akari who doesn't take long before announcing he is all in.
Arreola shows A♠6♥ and folds. Akari rolled over A♣3♣ for a flopped wheel, turned flush draw, and rivered nut flush. Unfortunately, Ramsdell was just holding a pair of threes and would hit the rail.

Gibran Baraan and James Rann tangoed with an all in preflop. When the cards were on their backs, Baraan had the advantage with a big pair.
James Rann: A♠Q♠
Gibran Baraan: K♥K♦
Rann got there right away as the flop scrolled across, Q♦4♥A♥. A stoic Baraan awaited the next two cards, as he needed to catch a king. The 7♣ and 9♥ were of no help to him and he patiently awaited the dealer's count to pay what he owed. He then gently knocked the table and congratulated his opponent. There were no big celebrations from Rann, as both these players seem to know it's a long road to the top.

Michael Halevy and Nikhil Nair got all their chips in the middle preflop with both sides feeling confident in their holdings. That changed when their hands were revealed.
Michael Halevy: J♦J♠
Louis Russo: Q♥Q♦
Halevy needed to find a jack or a miracle. The flop did help him some as the dealer presented, 9♥7♣10♣, making it so he could add an eight to the short list of his available outs. The turn was the A♠ and once the 6♣ fell, there was no more hope to fall back on as Halevy was sent to the payouts.
Nikhil Nair was also seen at this table and it seems he's been quietly accumulating chips as the day marches on.

Action was opened to 1,600,000 by Ghadi Akari in late position. It then folded to Toshimasa Sakato in the big blind who jammed for 10,600,000. The action was back on Akari who got a count and quickly called.
Toshimasa Sakato: A♥6♠
Ghadi Akari: A♠K♥
Akari was in great position to get a knockout and scoop. The Q♠Q♥9♦ flop was great but the 6♣ turn vaulted Sakato in to the lead. The J♥ river would bring no help. Sakato would get a pure double late in Day 3.

Denis Lee opened from late position and was called by Darrick Arreola on the button. Lee and Arreola have both been building their stack up throughout the day.
Heads up they saw a flop of 5♦6♠7♣. Lee continued with a bet of 2,100,000 and Arreola made the call.
The turn peeled the 4♠ and Lee slowed down with a check. Arreola took the green light and declared a bet for 5,000,000, jokingly annoyed he had to count the chips out, as Lee didn't fold right away. After some thought, Lee did fold and Arreola continued to build his mountain of chips.
