Heads are starting to roll at the PPT Vilamoura as the 6,000/12,000 blinds eat up the time for patience at the final table.
They caught up with Bruno Rilhó as he clashed with Hugo Almeida, as both men flopped straight draws to cue the fireworks.
Hugo had started the action with a pre-flop raise holding KQ and when Bruno called with Q9, the 7♠J♣9♣ flop was always going to produce action.
It was the latter who got it all in first, but would hardly have been happy to see he was dominated by another draw. The 9♥ arrived on the river to complete Hugo's straight and send his rival to the rail.
