Joao Vieira Eliminated in 9th Place ($250,000)
Level 32
: 600,000/1,200,000, 1,200,000 ante
Paul Tedeschi opened to 2.5 million in middle position with 
and Joao Vieira looked down at the 
in the hijack. Vieira struggled to pick up any hands thus far and was sitting on around 16 big blinds. He shoved all in for 17.5 million and Tedeschi quickly called when the action was back on him.
The flop fell 
which provided no help to Vieira who was looking to hit a jack. The 
on the turn gave Tedeschi top set and Vieira was left drawing dead to the 
on the river. While Vieira was not happy with a ninth-place finish, the $250,000 in his pocket is a nice consolation prize.
