Murilo Garcia Eliminated in 3rd Place (€525,000)
Level 32
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Daniel Pidun raised to 800,000 on the button with the A♥9♥ and Murilo Garcia three-bet to 3,000,000 out of the small blind holding the A♣3♣. Gerald Karlic in the big blind then four-bet small to 6,600,000 with 10♥10♣ and Pidun got out of the way.
Garcia then five-bet jammed after little consideration for massive 22,450,000 and Karlic vaulted out of his chair to gander at the stack at the other side of the table before making the call.
The 9♦8♣2♦ flop gave Garcia running clubs as possible outs and he made an inferior pair on the 3♥ turn. However, no further help came with the 7♥ river and the Brazilian went from near chip leader to third place finisher with a payday of €525,000 secured.
