Brian Morgan:
Zarko Mandic:
The dealer fanned out on the flop and the two short stacks needed to hit to stay alive. A peeled off on the turn, sealing the deal for Mandic as his two opponents were now drawing dead to the river card.
Saccardo was the shorter of the two that hit the felt and took home fifth place money, pocketing $108,852 for his efforts. Morgan secured himself $135,206 for his fourth-place finish.
