The tournament is on a five-minute break. The last hand leading up to the break saw a blind-on-blind battle where Connor "blanconegro" Drinan completed his small blind to put action onto Joao "Naza114" Vieira in the big blind, who raised his option to 540,000 and was called.

The flop came {3-Spades}{10-Clubs}{5-Spades} and both players checked. Drinan led out for 633,000 on the turn {9-Diamonds} and Vieira called, bringing the river qs]. Drinan fired out another 633,000 and Vieira went into the tank, activating his time bank to consider his decision. He eventually found a call.

Drinan showed {a-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{4-Spades} for a pair of tens, which was no good to Vieira's {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{9-Clubs}, earning him the pot with queens up after he found himself making the correct call.

"Kukenmuser" Eliminated in 4th Place ($142,100)

Level 33 : 90,000/180,000, 0 ante
"Kukenmuser"
"Kukenmuser"

"Kukenmuser" opened the action with a raise to 450,000 in the cutoff and action folded around to Connor "blanconegro" Drinan in the big blind, who moved the bet slider as far to the right as he possibly could to make a pot-sized three-bet of 1.44 million. "Kukenmuser" four-bet shoved for 4.17 million and Drinan called.

"Kukenmuser": {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{j-Spades}
Connor "blanconegro" Drinan: {a-Hearts}{q-Spades}{10-Hearts}{8-Hearts}

"Kukenmuser" was ahead with two aces and remained there on the flop {6-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} despite Drinan picking up top pair. However, the turn {8-Spades} gave Drinan tens up and put him out in front. The river {k-Diamonds} was of no avail to "Kukenmuser" and they saw their aces fall to Drinan's two pair, leaving them out of chips to take fourth place in the tournament, good for a payday of $142,100.
