Sergio Coutinho Eliminated in 14th Place (��34,250)
A wild and lengthy hand took place on the outer table when Alexandre Vuilleumier opened to 65,000 in middle position and Sergio Coutinho three-bet to around 150,000 with just a single chip behind.
Benjamin Pollak then cold four-bet to around 500,000 from the big blind and Vuilleumier five-bet jammed with both opponents covered. Despite being heavily pot-committed, Coutinho tossed out several time banks as he eyed a pay jump and went deep into the tank.
"Sorry about your arms," Coutinho told a TV crew member holding a boom mic above the table.
Coutinho eventually called and Pollak quickly followed suit.

Benjamin Pollak:
Alexandre Vuilleumier:
Pollak and Vuilleumier both had aces and chopped up their Portuguese opponent as the board ran out to mark his elimination in 14th place for ��34,250.
"A lot of drama," Vuilleumier laughed as he and Pollak chopped the small pot.
