Castro Eliminates Vieira
Harvey Castro raised to 20,000 from the button and Joao Vieira called.
The two went to a flop which came A♠3♣2♦. Vieira checked, Castro bet 14,000 and Vieira check-raised to 37,000. That was met with a call from Castro.
The 7♠ fell on the turn, and Vieira bet out for 110,000. Castro came along again.
On the 8♠ river, Vieira bet his entire stack besides five, yellow 1,000 chips, somewhere in the neighborhood of 330,000. Castro didn't wait to get a count and called. Vieira was bluffing with 10♠5♦ and Castro showed 9♠4♠ for a rivered flush and scooped a huge pot.
In the very next hand, Vieira was forced all in from the button/small blind, and Castro woke up with a real hand.
Vieira: 9♥7♦
Castro: J♣J♦
The board ran out 10♥8♠9♣A♣Q♣ and Castro's straight saw him move on to the next round.
