David Murillo Parda "hadn't played a hand in the last hour" according to one of his former tablemates, but he will play no more in this tournament after moving all-in for 69,000 over the top of chip leader Jose Manuel Planells Castillo's open to 17,000 in early position. The chip leader was never going to fold and it was a classic race.

Castillo has a massive shot at this 888Live Barcelona Main Event tile now and is even watching the live Twitch stream of the feature table i case he gets moved there. What's Spanish for dedication? Oh, yes, it's Jose Manuel Planells Castillo.
Sebastian Langrock was the first casualty and he was soon followed by Javier Martinez Perez. The Spaniard was short all in and both Luigi Shehadeh and Francesc Mateu Munoz Bieto called.
On the flop both players checked and Munoz Bieto check-raised the turn from 21,000 to 76,000, which Shehadeh called. After the river, Munoz Bieto check-called a bet worth 82,500. Shehadeh flipped over for a full house and Munoz Bieto mucked for a straight. Martinez briefly showed his cards and exited.
Jose Alberto Lopez Gonzalez had folded to a push by Fernando Pons in the previous hand, but this time he didn't go out of the way as he called the shove of Andre Andrade.
