Julian De Berti: {K-Clubs}

Hector Luis Aceval: {8-Diamonds}

Jose Nadal: {K-Hearts}

The

gave Aceval a set and De Berti a straight draw. The {K-Spades}

fell on the turn and that gave Nadal two pair and a chance at a higher full house. But on the river, De Berti spiked the {9-Hearts}

to give him a straight and send Nadal out in 26th place and Aceval out in 25th.

Pat Van Dijk Eliminated in 18th Place ($17,640)

[user37786]

Van Dijk was all in with {A-Spades}

against Alfons Fenijn's {10-Diamonds}

, and when the flop came {A-Diamonds}

, the two grinned at each other from across the felt. Both players are from the Netherlands and might well be friends, because when the turn delivered the {10-Spades}

to turn the tables Fenijn's way, he reached his arms out across the table and smiled with some regret. The {J-Hearts}

came on the river and the two hugged briefly before Van Dijk headed for the rail
