Mustapha Kanit Bags Huge Lead in Day 3 Aussie Millions Main

Day 3 of the 2017 Aussie Millions Main Event saw the field hit the money at 80 players and continued on until 36 players remained. Mustapha Kanit ended the night with a near average stack lead over the field with 2.3 million in the bag.

Jennifer Tilly began the day as the chip leader and she finished above average outside the top ten spots. Fedor Holz, Seth Davies and Joe Ebanks also survived the day.

Nick Petrangelo, Garrett Greer, Matt Affleck and Craig McCorkell were eliminated but did earn a cash in the event. Erik Seidel missed cashing in the event and will have to play the final AUD$50,000 tournament that was added on by request of the players to pass Daniel Negreanu on the All-Time money list.

Day 4 of the Main Event and beyond features Jason Somerville’s live Twitch stream coverage.
