Mike Leah Eliminated in 2nd Place ($266,658)
Level 29
Seven Card Stud
Mike Leah: K♦6♦/K♣Q♠2♦6♥/5♥ 
Maksim Pisarenko: A♥K♠/A♣6♠2♣5♣/5♦
Mike Leah two-bet all in on third street and Maksim Pisarenko instantly called. Leah had split kings but was up against Pisarenko's split aces.
Neither player improved until sixth street, where Leah made two pair. However, Pisarenko made aces up on seventh street for a higher two pair.
This left Leah with just one king and one six as outs, but he failed to peel either and had to make do with becoming the runner-up in the $10,000 H.O.R.S.E. Championship for $266,658.
