Helder:
The board came giving Vilela a river pair to double up. He explodes out of his chair in excitement into the arms of his Brazilian friends screaming for him on the rail.
A member of the tournamnet staff is forced to come over and give Diego Vilela his one and only warning for excessive celebration. Another outburst and he will be forced to serve a penalty.
