Event 14 (Day 3): 7th Place - Reis ($20,172)

"Battles At The Beach"
Event 14 ($1,500 No Limit Hold'em Main Event $500,000 GTD)
Level 28 (Blinds 30,000/60,000/10,000)
Total Entries: 482
Players Remaining: 6
Chip Average: 2,410,000

Rafael Reis (Curitiba, Brazil)

Rafael Reis's chip graph would show a stead decline over the past three levels, and with the recent level's transition, he'd be sitting with just over (13) big blinds.  With action folding to Reis, he'd open-shove for 770,000, with Darryl Fish re-shoving next to act (for over 1,300,000).  The remaining players folded behind, and the cards were tabled:

Reis: K♠ Q
Fish: A♣ J♠

Board: 9 J♣ 6 3 8♣

Even though Fish flopped a pair of jacks, Reis still had two overs, and a gut-shot straight draw.  Neither would amount on the turn and river, and Rafael would bow out in 7th place.

Darryl Fish - 2,400,000
Rafael Reis - 7th Place ($20,172)
