Pete Campo Eliminated in 8th Place ($22,654)
Level 30
: 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante
In the final hand of Level 30, Kevin Saul opened to 100,000 from under the gun, and it folded around to Paul Snead on the button who flatted. It then folded to Pete Campo in the big blind who reraised all in for 650,000, and after a bit of a think Saul let his cards go.
Snead promptly counted down the calling chips, put them in a single column, and set them forward. Campo then tabled 
while Snead shoed 
.
The flop came 
to pair Snead once, then the 
turn gave him a second pair. The river was the 
, and after that long stretch with no eliminations we've seen two in consecutive hands.
Meanwhile, what a wild last few minutes of the level for Snead — going from first to nearly last, then quickly back up over 2 million again.
