Nacho Barbero Eliminated in 17th Place ($22,421)
Level 24
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Action was picked up on the turn with the board reading 
. From the cutoff, Francois Pirault bet 275,000. Nacho Barbero was in the big blind and raised it up to 745,000.
Pirault took his time before announcing all in and Barbero snap-called.
Pirault saw the bad news as his 
was dominated by the 
flopped straight of Barbero.
But the river was the 
to land a stunning blow to Barbero who looked like the wind was knocked out of him as he stood in shock as the stacks were counted down and it was confirmed he was eliminated just before the final two tables.
