Antoine Amourette Finishes as Runner Up (€328,690)

Only three heads up hands were needed to decide the winner of this event. With a massive chip deficit (6 million vs. 600k) Antoine Amourette had little choice but to get it in and try to double back into contention. He moved in once with no call, but the second time his {K-Diamonds} {6-Hearts} was snapped off by Jorgensen's {A-Spades} {K-Clubs}. It looked like another reversal of fortune was about to keep the game going as the flop came {6-Diamonds} {J-Clubs} {4-Clubs}, but Amourette's joy was short lived as the {A-Hearts} arrived on the turn.

"A six would be sick," commented Jorgensen, but no such six arrived, instead the harmless {5-Diamonds} propelled the rest of the chips in play in the whole tournament into Jorgensen's stack.
