Sylvain's Kings Run Into Aces
Level 23
: 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Action was picked up with a preflop raise to 80,000 which had three callers, one being Sylvain Naets. Pedro Neves, in the small blind, raised to 310,000 and action folded back to Naets who went all-in for 2,100,000. Neves snap-called.
Sylvain Naets: 
Pedro Neves: 
Naets was down to two immediate outs before the flop and on the turn of 
he still had to draw to one of the the last two kings in the deck. The 
river did not improve Naets and he was eliminated from the tournament. Neves now has one of the biggest stacks in the event with over 5,000,000 in chips.
