John Tabatabai Wins!

In the final hand of play Alec Torelli was down to his last 4,500 and all in preflop and John Tabatabai made the call.

Tabatabai: {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{7-Hearts}

Torelli:

{10-Diamonds}

{K-Diamonds}

The flop was all Tabatabai when it landed {9-Hearts}

{9-Hearts}

{7-Clubs}

{7-Diamonds}

to make him trip sevens. The turn was the {Q-Clubs}

{Q-Clubs}

and river the {8-Hearts}

{8-Hearts}

and John Tabatabai becomes our Australian Heads Up Champion!

Alec Torelli collects another runner-up finish in a major Heads Up event following his 2nd place finish to Kenny Tran at the WSOP. We think that AU$60,000 should ease the pain a little.

Meanwhile John Tabatabai collects the Aussie Millions Gold Ring and AU$100,000!
