Ken Demlakian Eliminated in 2nd Place (NZD$70,400), David Allan Wins!
After a tough two-hour heads-up battle, the final hand of the 2012 PokerStars.net Australia New Zealand Poker Tour has played out.
It started with David Allan limping the button and Ken Demlakian checking the big blind. Both players opted to check the flop and it was on to the turn. Demlakian led for 50,000 here and Allan called.
The river was flipped onto the felt and Demlakian led for 60,000. Allan then announced a raise to 170,000 and Demlakian shoved all in. Allan made the call and Demlakian's tournament was at risk.
"Two-pair," Demlakian said as he turned over .
"Flush," replied Allan, tabling as he did so.
With the last hand dealt and all the chips in Allan's stack, Demlakian goes home in second place, collecting a very nice NZD$70,400 in prize money.
