51 players returned on Day 3 of the $1,000 NLHE tournament with Alex Cordero in the chiplead (822,000). By the time they played it down to the 9-handed final table, however, LAPT champion Dominik Nitsche had the biggest stack.
First out was Daniel Eichhorn, closely followed by Jonathan Miller. Martin Vallo, Frankie Johnson, Randolph Lanosga and Sebastien Comel followed, mostly eliminated by Nitsche. Jonathan Hilton then railed Cordero, setting the heads-up.
Dominik Nitsche: 10,460,000
Jonathan Hilton: 3,400,000
In about an hour, Nitsche kept increasing his vast edge until Hilton called his all-in in the last hand with his remaining 2,200,000 in chips.

The end results are as follows:
Day 3 of the 10,000 2-7 Draw Lowball (No-Limit) tournament saw 10 players returning, but Andy Bloch, Larry Wright and Ali Eslami had to be eliminated to set the 7-handed final table.
Bob Bright was railed first, then came John Juanda, who caused a bit of uneasiness by requesting the replay of the dealer’s actions when he though he received the same card back he just changed. Ashton Griffin, Benjamin Parker and George Danzer got then eliminated to leave Nick Schulman and Mike Wattel to play heads-up.
Nick Schulman: 2,630,000
Mike Wattel: 397,000
In the last hand of the only 10 minutes long heads-up, Schulman bet Wattel’s all-in, who called. They both changed only one.
Schulman: 9-8-6-3
Wattel: 6-4-3-2
Schulman drew a seven and Wattel got a king, giving the title to Schulman.
