Martin Welch - 2nd Place ($3,400)

On the first hand of heads-up play, Martin Welch moved all-in and was snap called by William Blais. The flop swept out {6-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} and both released a card.

Blais: {a-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}
Welch: {k-Diamonds}{q-Spades}

Blais was ahead, needing to sweat just two cards to win it all. The turn was the {6-Hearts} changing nothing and the dealer laid the {8-Hearts} on the river, sealing Blais' victory.
