Geiberger, who made the turn at one-over 37, quickly made up for his mistake with three birdies on the back nine before a bogey on the par three 17th dropped him to one-under-par 71.
Tied for third are Matt Gogel, who had the day's best round with a six-under 66, Michael Allen, Joe Ogilvie, who bogeyed the last to lose the lead, and David Toms at 11-under.
Chris Smith moved to 10-under-par with a five-under 67 and is tied for seventh with defending champion Shigeki Maruyama of Japan.
