: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Jose Cordobes held 
but had run into the 
of Victor Caballero.
The board was 
and Cordobes was eliminated.
Meanwhile, 888poker Ambassador Alexandre Mantovani had been short for a while and got his remaining chips in from the hijack and got two calls.
After Tom Orpaz forced out the other player on the 
flop, the cards were turned over.
Alexandre Mantovani: 
Tom Orpaz: 
The turn 
gave Mantovani a pair, but the river was the 
giving Orpaz top pair and eliminating the Brazilian opponent.
"I don't understand how I got this deep in the tournament," he said after the hand. "My best hand was queen-jack for the first three hours. But we've still got two [888poker players] in, so we've got a sweat."
