Michael Bancroft Eliminated in 2nd Place ($12,238); Harry Ligos Wins!

Michael Bancroft - 2nd Place
Michael Bancroft - 2nd Place
Michael Bancroft moved all in from the button for about 180,000 but Harry Ligos insta-called.

Bancroft: {10-Diamonds}{5-Spades}
Ligos: {Q-Clubs}{Q-Spades}

Oops! An amazing time to pick up a big pocket pair for Ligos as Bancroft was going to need something miraculous to escape. It wasn't to be as the board fell {2-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{J-Spades}{K-Spades}{K-Clubs} to give Harry Ligos the title!

Michael Bancroft ends his excellent run in 2nd place for a satisfying collect of $12,238 in prize money.
