Ten out of the 27 players who remained to play on Day 3 of the $1,000 NLHE Event (WSOP #34) were seated together before the 9-handed final table play began with the elimination of Steven Davisson at Level 25 (5,000/15,000/30,000):
First out was Jeremy Kottler and then Michael Souza and $1,500 NLHE Shootout event 2nd finisher Robbie ‘RobbieV’ Verspui were railed. Eventually, Justin Cohen played heads-up with Schmid, following Andrew Rudnik finishing in 3rd place and the elimination of Benjamin Volpe, Trevor Vanderveen and Jonathan Clancy before him.
Cohen gained a 3:1 lead in the first hand, but Schmid doubled up soon and in the last hand he already had the majority of the chips. It occurred at Level 30 (10,000/50,000/100,000); Schmid limped, Cohen checked preflop and they also checked the
K T 
7 flop. On the 7 turn, Cohen checked once again but Schmid bet $250,000 and Cohen called. It was Schmid again to bet 450,000 on the A river, Cohen shoved and Schmid called.

The final table of $5,000 PLO 6-max (WSOP #35) was formed on Event Day 3 with the elimination of poker instructor Greg ‘MYNAMEIZGREG’ Brooks who began the 15-handed day in the chiplead. The six finalists to be seated were the following:
Shortstack Mike McDonald got railed first, followed by Joseph Ressler and David Chiu. HU-time came at Level 27 (25,000/50,000) with the elimination of Steven Merrifield. Hans Winzeler and Mercier played on for another hour or so.
The odds were close to even throughout the session, until Winzeler dropped to 2,800,000 in a hand they mucked. In the next hand, it was over: they went all-in on the
9 4 3 flop:
Winzeler:A K K J
