Joao Dorneles Neto Eliminated in 12th Place ($7,574)
Joao Dorneles Neto open-jammed from the cutoff and Erik Seidel smoothly called from the big blind.
Seidel patted, and that is when the drama began. Dorneles Neto had a very difficult choice in front of him, with survival on the line, whether or not to break his hand. He took his time with the decision, lifting his cards again and again, staring into his hand. After agonizing minutes he came to the decision to break.
Seidel turned over 10x9x4x3x2x, and Dorneles Neto a strong draw, 7x6x3x2x. He slowly peeled the card from the table, hoping to see a five, a four, an eight, nine, or ten. But it was not to be, as he revealed it was a queen.
Seidel, the quiet assassin had claimed another victim, and unfortunately for Dorneles Neto, it was his turn in the Hall of Famer's crosshairs.
