Level 21
: 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Leonardo Rizzo opened the action with a raise to 40,000. Alexandre Roese called the raise. On the button, Cida Oliveira moved all in for roughly 350,000. Action folded to the big blind who moved all in over the top for 405,000 total. Rizzo tanked for a long time before he announced a fold but held onto his card. Roese folded as well, then Rizzo showed that he had folded 
.
He was excited to see Oliveira turn up 
while Nogueira turned over 
. Rizzo jumped out of his seat and began cheering about his correct fold.
The board rolled out 
and that kept Nogueira in the lead the whole way, earning him the very important double up late in the day.
