Pedro Neves got all of his 500,000 remaining chips in from the small blind against Danil Rafikov in the small blind and was at risk.
Pedro Neves: K?K?
Danil Rafikov: 9?9?
It was looking like a double-up for Neves, who held the dominating pair. However, Rafikov flopped a set on A?7?9?, and Neves would not hit a king on the 5?J? runout.
Neves was eliminated in 17th place, being the first player to take home $44,400. The remaining 16 players had a redraw that saw them spread across two tables of eight.
