Belarmino De Souza raiesd to 25,000 from the hijack before Conor O'Rourke three-bet to 92,000 from the small blind. De Souza four-bet shoved four roughly 350,000 and O'Rourke snap-called.

Belarmino De Souza: A7 All in
Conor O'Rourke: 1010

De Souza had run into the pocket tens of O'Rourke, but he did have hearts and an ace he could hit to win. The flop of 234 was wonderful for De Souza as he picked up straight and flush draws. However, the K turn and 9 river didn't help him, and he was out in twentieth place.
