Two Eights Worth €40,000 For Neagoe
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Darius Neagoe raised to 50,000 in the cutoff and was called by Eloy Dominguez and Urmo Velvelt in the blinds.
The flop came 6♥3♥3♠ and Neagoe bet 80,000. Dominguez called, while Velvelt raised to 275,000. Neagoe then moved all in, Dominguez folded, while Velvelt called for 750,000.
Urmo Velvelt: K♦6♣ 
Darius Neagoe: 8♥8♠
Velvelt had flopped two pair, but he was behind Neagoe's eights and threes while the A♥ turn and J♣ river were no help, sending last year's Main Event runner-up to the rail.
Neagoe soon after used his new bounty chip and pulled the €40,000 prize, while Sebastian Kannler was seen exiting the tournament area after busting.
