Silva's Aces Cracked and is Eliminated at End of Day

Level 23 : 175,000/350,000, 45,000 ante

Victor "Capitao1987" Faria open-shoved in early position and Miguel "inca7bar" Silva called off his 3,190,272 stack. Everyone else folded and Silva was the one at risk.

Victor "Capitao1987" Faria: {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}
Miguel "inca7bar" Silva: {a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}

Silva was an overwhelming favorite to double, but the flop came {k-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{j-Diamonds} to give Faria Broadway. The {8-Spades} turn left Silva looking for a queen just to chop, but the board completed with the {3-Spades}.

An absolutely devastating result for Silva, and at the same time, a very fortunate hand to end the day for Faria. That brings the number of players down to 27 and ends the day, which is scheduled to resume tomorrow as they play down to a winner.

Stay tuned for the full chip counts of the final three tables and a recap of the day.
