Patrick Kennedy Eliminated in 2nd Place (�173,300)
Level 27
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Gergo Nagy had been gradually whittling Patrick Kennedy down in heads-up play, winning most of the hands that saw a flop and leveraging his chip lead.
Nagy again potted it from the button to 240,000 and Kennedy moved all in from the big blind for around 1,000,000, with Nagy making the call, saying "Let's do it".
Patrick Kennedy: K?Q?J?6?
Gergo Nagy: Q?7?6?5?
Kennedy was ahead and the K?9?4? flop gave him top pair kings, while also giving Nagy a flush draw.
The 9? turn was a brick, but the 5? rolled off on the river to give Nagy the queen-high flush and the title, putting an end to an interesting heads-up battle.
The players shook hands and Nagy celebrated with his rail.
