Flush Works For Ramos Da Fonseca

Marcelo Ramos Da Fonseca raised to 110,000 on the button and was called by Francisco Baruffi Neto in the big blind.

The flop came down {J-Spades}{J-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} and both checked to see the {7-Diamonds} turn. A check from Baruffi Neto resulted in a bet of 125,000 from Ramos Da Fonseca. However, Baruffi Neto put in a min-raise to 250,000. A call from Ramos Da Fonseca landed the {2-Diamonds} on the river. Baruffi Neto bet 275,000 and after a few moments was called by Ramos Da Fonseca.

Both players had a flush, but the {A-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} of Ramos Da Fonseca bested the {10-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} of Baruffi Neto.

Pablo Joaquin Melogno Eliminated in 4th Place ($60,420)

Pablo Joaquin Melogno - 4th Place
Pablo Joaquin Melogno - 4th Place

Pablo Joaquin Melogno raised to 110,000 from the button and Angel Guillen replied by popping it up to 225,000 from the small blind. It folded back to Melogno who four-bet all in and Guillen called.

Guillen: {A-Hearts}{K-Clubs}
Melogno: {Q-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}

The flop came {9-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{4-Spades} and Guillen's ace-king high retained the lead. Melogno picked up a ton of outs, however, when the {10-Diamonds} turned. Fortunately for Guillen, however, the river was not a queen, jack, eight, or diamond, instead it was the {5-Hearts}, sealing Melogno's fate as our fourth place finisher.
