Just before the players hit their second break, a huge hand emerged between Chris Ferguson and Steven Albini. Ferguson completed with a ten and Albini defended his bring-in with a seven.

Ferguson immediately paired his ten and fired but Albini wasn't scared and called with two spades out.

Fifth street brought Albini a great blocker, the {10-Spades}, and he bet when Ferguson checked. Ferguson called and caught the {A-Clubs} on sixth. Both players checked and Ferguson led out on the river. Albini raised but Ferguson wasn't done yet. He cut out a three-bet and Albini didn't like to see that. However, he immediately knew that there was no way out for him.

"I can't fold, I call. I have queens full," Albini said, smelling that he might've ended up second. But Ferguson immediately informed him that his hand was good.

Chris Ferguson: {10-Clubs}{K-Clubs}{4-Clubs} / {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{A-Clubs}
Steven Albini: {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}{7-Hearts} / {7-Spades}{Q-Spades}{10-Spades}{5-Hearts}

"I would've bet my last nickel that you were going to show me aces full," said Albini, who took over the pole position.

Frankie O'Dell was sporting a short stack various times on the final table, but his miraculous streak of doubles has been finally shut down by Chris Ferguson.

O'Dell's last hand in the tournament started with his completion. Chris Ferguson called and the rest went in on fourth street where O'Dell bet and Ferguson raised.

"I've got queens," Ferguson said, showing buried queens. Ferguson made two pair right away and O'Dell couldn't pick up a pair on fifth nor on sixth street. He knew he was drawing dead before the river card was dealt.

Frankie O'Dell: {K-Hearts}{9-Spades} / {Q-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{A-Spades}{3-Hearts} / {8-Diamonds}
Chris Ferguson: {Q-Clubs}{Q-Spades} / {3-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{5-Spades}{3-Hearts} / {8-Spades}

Frankie O'Dell has been the master of doubles on this final table. Even more remarkably, he's been constantly doing it by filling up his flush draws. O'Dell just scored back-to-back doubles through Chris Ferguson, using his trademark weapon on both occasions.

The first dub came with O'Dell having the bring-in. He placed in all his 17,000 and Steven Albini raised. Chris Ferguson came along and bet on fourth, forcing a fold from Albini.

Chris Ferguson: {9-Spades}{3-Spades} / {9-Hearts}{A-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{7-Clubs} / {A-Spades}
Frankie O'Dell: {J-Hearts}{10-Hearts} / {3-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{K-Hearts}{A-Hearts} / {4-Clubs}

On the next hand, O'Dell completed and called when Ferguson raised. Ferguson fired on fourth and called off when O'Dell pushed in his remaining chips. Ferguson was ahead with a pair of sixes but O'Dell was able to finish with a flush again, hitting his fifth spade on the river.
