Pedro Neves Eliminated in 17th Place ($44,400)
Level 23
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
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.
