Team PokerStars Pro Daniel Negreanu was just eliminated in sixth place at the hands of Carlos Ibarra. He'll walk away with a payday of R$48,730 and here's how the elimination went down.

From under the gun, Negreanu raised to 68,000. Ibarra flat-called from the cutoff seat and everyone else folded. The dealer ran out the {10-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{3-Hearts} flop and Negreanu bet 102,000 with 575,000 behind. Ibarra took about half a minute and then announced a raise. He slid out three tall stacks of blue T5,000 chips and made it 300,000 to go.

From there, Negreanu went into the tank. He thought for a minute or two before commenting about how it was a tough spot. He tried to chat up Ibarra a bit, but Ibarra only spoke Spanish. Still, the two went back and forth a little bit while laughing and having fun with it. Then, Negreanu reraised all in for 677,000. Ibarra stood up, took a few seconds, then called to put the four-time World Series of Poker gold bracelet winner at risk.

Negreanu tabled the {Q-Clubs}{10-Spades} for top pair, but was behind the trickily-played {A-Spades}{A-Hearts} for Ibarra.

The turn brought the {7-Spades} and then the river the {A-Clubs}. Ibarra finished with a winning set of aces while Negreanu was left with just a losing pair of tens. Negreanu shook the hands of the players remaining and exited to the payout desk with a round of applause from everyone in the room.
