De Almeida Can't Survive Until Dinner
Level 14
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Daniel De Almeida raised to 24,000 in early position and Paulo Goncalves reraised to 80,000 in the hijack. The action folded back to De Almeida who four-bet shoved all in for around 400,000. Goncalves called and the cards were on their backs.
Daniel De Almeida: J♥J♣
Paulo Goncalves: A♠K♦
It was a coin flip and the flop of A♣Q♣8♦ put Goncalves in the lead with a pair of aces. The A♦ on the turn improved his hand and the 10♣ on the river was no help for De Almeida who was eliminated just prior to the dinner break.
