After Leo Kaplin and John Griswold exchanged the lead a couple times, Griswold finally got the better of Kaplin in a pot where he held the chip lead.

Kaplin moved all in preflop and Griswold put him at risk.

Leo Kaplin: {a-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}
John Griswold: {k-Hearts}{q-Clubs}

A {k-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} board fanned out and Griswold spiked trips on the turn to end the match and capture the Event #4 title.

Kaplin took home $2,400 for his runner-up finish while Griswold got the trophy and a top prize of $3,821.
