Chipleader Josh Hillock raised from middle position to 1,200,000, Caio Sobral moved all in from the big blind for about 9,500,000, and Hillock called with AcKs.

Sobral turned over Jd10h, and needed to improve to stay alive.

The board came Kh7c2dAd3c, and Caio turned a gutshot straight draw, but improved no further. Hillock won the pot with two pair, aces and kings, to eliminate Sobral in 17th place.
