Ilari Sahamies Eliminated in 2nd Place (€220,970)
The heads-up match lasted all but four hands and Steve O'Dwyer won all of them. Ilari Sahamies asked before the start of the heads-up whether they could also play it at a later date, but O'Dwyer suggested to play a while still and see where that leads to.
In the first hand of heads-up, Sahamies raised to 400,000 and O'Dwyer called. They checked the flop and the turn before O'Dwyer bet the river for 450,000 to scoop the pot uncontested.
The second hand was a limp by O'Dwyer and the check of Sahamies. On the flop, Sahamies check-folded to a bet worth 200,000 by O'Dwyer.
The third hand was a walk for O'Dwyer and he then open-shoved the fourth hand. "I don't know, I am so bad," Sahamies said and then called it off for around 2,600,000 chips.
