Final Table Action

Zamorano entered the final day in the chip lead, followed by Switzerland's Samiyel Duzgun and Russia's Ruslan Bakhtiev. Players were 65 big blinds deep on average but this didn't stop some big action straight out of the door. On the second hand of the final table, Comeron eliminated two players when his aces held strong against the kings held by Israel's Shlomi Shimoni jacks held by Ukraine's Vladyslav Pohribnyi.

It took several hours for another elimination to take place when Comeron's aces held against Duzgen's eights. Shortly after, Comeron went four for four when he eliminated short-stacked Alexey Romanov in sixth place.

The Spaniard was also involved in the next elimination that sparked some controversy. Anar three-bet jammed a short-stack with king-jack and was called by Comeron with king-eight and by Zamorano with aces, who completed the action. Comeron and Zamorano checked down a nine-high board and the aces held up to bring the field to four Zamarano retook the chip lead after the hand.

Comeron went back to doing what he was great at �� eliminating players �� by sniping Bakhtiev in fourth with kings versus ace-king, swinging the lead back to him. Dutch-Iranian Milad Oghabian was ousted next by the Spaniard who spiked a queen with king-queen suited against Oghabian's ace-king.

Comeron entered heads-up play with a short chip lead but Zamorano was able to snag it back quickly during heads-up play. A short while later, the duo agreed to a deal with each player going home with �164,000. Zamorano had the lead at the time and was declared the official winner.
