Joao Pinto Correia Eliminated in 3rd Place (�55,888)
Level 29
: 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante
We said it was going to be a battle between these two to avoid being busted by the big stack. Mathieu Selides raised small to big and Pinto jammed. Selides made the call.
Pinto: 
Selides: 
Pinto was ahead and the flop was a safe one 
. However the 
threw a little tension into the air, with Selides now taking the lead but also opening the door to a split pot. However the river was the 
eliminating Pinto in third meaning we were now heads up between Selides and Rodrigues for �111,776 and a gold WSOP ring
