Roel Pijpers Eliminated in 28th Place ($13,068)

Action folded around to Roel Pijpers on the button who made it 26,000 to go. Leo Boxell made the call from the small blind and then the action fell to David Formosa who kicked it up to 86,000. Pijpers then moved all in over the top for about 300,000, Boxell folded and Formosa made the call:

Formosa: {A-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}
Pijpers: {K-Clubs}{9-Spades}

The board then ran out {4-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{A-Hearts} and Formosa took down the pot with a set of aces, skyrocketing to the top of the leaderboard in the process with just over 950,000 in chips.
