One of those 11 quarterfinalist acts, the Hakuna Matata Acrobatic from Tanzania, had received Sofia's Golden Buzzer on Tuesday night, which will automatically send them to America's Got Talent's Season 19 finals.
That left 10 acts vying for America's votes following their impressive live performances.
After the home viewers votes poured in, America's Got Talent host Terry Crews announced the three highest vote-getters who will move on to the Season 19 semifinals during Wednesday night's one-hour broadcast.
The three popular acts who advanced in the competition on August 14 were country rock trio Ashes & Arrows, Indiana janitor and aspiring singer Richard Goodall, and owner and dog dancers from Israel, Roni Sagi & Rhythm.
Howie had said Ashes & Arrows really "rose to the occasion" on Tuesday night, and he predicted that song was going to be hit the charts the next day.
Howie had admitted to Roni Sagi that he was "upset" because he wished he could've hit a Golden Buzzer for her, and Heidi called the act "absolutely amazing."
Simon had questioned if the dog was even "a real dog" because he was able to dance so well.
And as for Richard, Simon didn't think "How Am I Supposed to Live Without You" was the best song choice for him because it was a bit old-fashioned.
However, Heidi gushed about how she had "a soft spot" in her heart for the singer, and Simon pointed out how Richard has a chance to win the whole thing.
Since Ashes & Arrows, Richard Goodall, Roni Sagi & Rhythm, and Hakuna Matata Acrobatic survived the quarterfinals, the seven remaining acts were eliminated from the show.
The seven acts who didn't earn a Golden Buzzer or enough votes to advance to the semifinals were Arshiya, Attraction Juniors, Flewnt and Inkabee, Hypers Kids Africa, Liv Warfield, Los Osos High School, and Phillip Lewis.
