Pedro Padilha Eliminated in 2nd Place ($3,160,000)
Level 30
: Blinds 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante
Aleksejs Ponakovs limped in on the button, and Pedro Padilha moved all in for 17,000,000, which Ponakovs quickly called, to put Padilha at risk.
Pedro Padilha: A♦9♠ 
Aleksejs Ponakovs: 9♥9♣
Ponakovs set the trap, and now was in a great position to claim his first Triton title. The 4♣7♠3♦ flop kept Ponakovs in front, and the Q♥ on the turn changed nothing. The river was the 10♠ which gave Ponakovs the pot, and eliminated Padilha.
