Siyu Sha Eliminated in 17th Place (€13,000)
João Paulo Simão is like the Brazilian Dario Minieri, which means he is very aggressive and a hell of a lot of fun to watch. His image was shot pieces after that hand with Levi, and this enabled him to get maximum value with a big hand.
He opened to 39,000 from the button and was called by Jean-Pierre Petroli in the small blind before Siyu Sha three-bet to 109,000 from the big blind. The Brazilian doesn't like to fold or call and showed that by four-betting to 204,000. Petroli folded but Sha moved all-in for a little less than a million. Call.

The board ran 
to make Simão quads! The smile is well and truly back on his face now.
The tournament is down to two tables now. There will be a short break while the tables are balanced. We'll post the seating plan as chip counts very shortly.
