Breno Drumond was forced to blind off a portion of his stack in the Main Event today, as he had a final table to complete in the $2,500 Freezeout event.

Drumond ended up placing second and then immediately took his seat back in the Main.

In a recent hand, Drumond opened to 2,500 from early position and was three-bet to 7,000 by Matthew Vannortwick on the button. It was folded back to Drumond, who made it 14,000 to go. Vannortwick called.

The flop came 276 and Drumond continued for 3,200. Vannortwick wanted nothing to do with it and let his hand go — conceding the pot to Drumond, who has chipped back up to a little over a starting stack.
