Nikolay Traskevich Eliminated in 2nd Place (€45,750)
Level 33
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
On the very first hand of heads-up play, Nikolay Traskevich shoved from the button for 1,700,000 and Darius Neagoe snap-called.
Nikolay Traskevich: 9♥7♥
Darius Neagoe: 5♣5♦
If Neagoe could hold with pocket fives he would be the winner of the event. The flop of 5♠9♣8♥ put Neagoe firmly in the lead with a set of fives. The Q♥ turn did offer up a gutshot to Traskevich, but the 6♦ river meant Neagoe's set would hold up and he had won the tournament.
