Pedro Marques Eliminated in 2nd Place (�288,750)
Down to 7,700,000 and on the button, Pedro Marques moved all-in. Jose Manuel Gonzalez glanced over at the tournament info screen, grabbed into his large stack and splashed a pile in for the call.
Pedro Marques: 
Jose Manuel Gonzalez: 
A small rail gathered in the corner of the main room to watch the action unfold. Neither player connected with the 
flop and 
turn. Marques still had plenty of outs to stave off elimination but also whiffed the 
on the river to bow out in second place.
According to the deal both players cut, Marques takes home �288,750 for his efforts. In the meanwhile, an ecstatic Gonzalez loudly celebrated for the entire room to hear. He secured a payday of �343,750 and the EPT winner's trophy.
A recap of today's action is to follow.
