With the board showing Club 8Diamond 7Heart 4Diamond A on the turn, Jair Coelho moves all in from the small blind, and Philipp Gruissem calls from the hijack with Heart ASpade Q for a pair of aces.

Coelho turns over Diamond 8Spade 5 for a pair of eights with a gutshot straight draw, and he needs to improve to stay alive.

The river card is the Spade 2, and Gruissem wins the pot with his pair of aces to eliminate Coelho in 79th place.
