Ruffini: {K-Spades}{k-Hearts}
Hasbani: {A-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}

The {5-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{9-Spades} flop was of no help to Hasbani, who was looking for an ace to survive. The turn and river saw the {5-Spades} and {3-Diamonds} fall and Hasbani was eliminated.

Camilo Applies Massive Pressure

Carlos Leoncio Mironiuk bet 24,000 from early position and was called by Marcelo Ramos Da Fonseca. It folded to Thiago Camilo in the big blind who three-bet to 56,000.

Mironiuk called without hesitation and Fonseca decided to tag along as well. The flop came {8-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{4-Spades} and Camilo continued out by pushing a bet of 130,000 into the middle. Mironiuk called quite quickly once more and Fonseca threw away his hand. Fourth street brought the {7-Diamonds} and Camilo announced all in for 221,000.

Mironuik folded his hand face up, showing {J-Clubs}{J-Spades} and Camilo erupted into celebration, showing the table {A-Spades}{Q-Spades} for a flush draw. This big move puts Camilo among the top five in chips.

Chip Counts at Dinner Break

Guillen Triples In Dramatic Fashion

Angel Guillen
Angel Guillen

Just before the dinner break started...

Angel Guillen opened to 16,000 in early position and was called by Vladimir Dobrovolskiy in the cutoff. Leandro Rubinsztain came along from the small blind as well to see a {Q-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{8-Clubs} flop.

It checked around to Dobrovolskiy who bet 24,000. Rubinsztain called, but Guillen had other ideas as he shoved for 184,000. Dobrovolskiy re-raised all in over the top and was no doubt surprised when Rubinsztain immediately called all in for about 140,000.

Rubinsztain: {J-Spades}{9-Clubs}
Guillen: {K-Clubs}{K-Spades}
Dobrovolskiy: {A-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}

Rubinsztain had both players in terrible shape with his straight. The {K-Diamonds} hit the turn to give Guillen outs to a full house or quads, while Dobrovolskiy was left drawing to broadway.

The {8-Diamonds} river paired the board to give Guillen a winning full house, crippling Dobrovolskiy and eliminating Rubinsztain.
