After taking the chip lead, Erasmus Morfe opened to 1.2 million on the button and was three-bet to 3 million by Alex Kotliarsky in the big blind. Morfe four-bet all in and Kotliarsky reluctantly tossed a chip in to call after about 35 seconds of deliberation.

Alex Kotliarsky: {a-Hearts}{5-Spades}
Erasmus Morfe: {a-Clubs}{10-Clubs}

Morfe was way out in front with his sights set on victory as the flop came {6-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}, making the trophy and title all but a lock after flopping a flush draw to take away one of Kotliarsky's three outs. He now needed running non-club straight cards or a five and would not hit either as the turn {q-Hearts} and river {7-Diamonds} completed both the runout and the tournament, resulting in Kotliarsky taking second place for $43,000.
