Michael Acevedo Eliminated in 23rd Place ($7,900)

Level 23
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Daniel Negreanu raised from under the gun to 60,000, and when it folded to Michael Acevedo on the button, he three-bet all in for his stack of 245,000. It folded back to Negreanu who made the call to put Acevedo at risk.
Michael Acevedo:A?K?
Daniel Negreanu: 9?9?
It was a flip, but Acevedo would need to improve past Negreanu's pocket nines to stay in the tournament. The board ran out 7?8?4?8?Q? and Negreanu's nines were still best, giving him the pot and eliminating Acevedo.
