Short and Sweet

[user46298]

The break before the heads up between Peter Gould and Patrik Selin was at least four times longer, as it turned out, than the battle itself. Just five minutes of play saw the chips go Peter's way in two large hands.

The first hand saw Peter Gould check-calling button Selin's 7k bet on a flop of {9-Clubs}

, only to bet out 12k on the {3-Hearts}

turn, and 20k on the {8-Diamonds}

river. Patrik Selin paid off both bets, but may only have fallen behind on the river (he mucked, but later admitted A-T) - Peter Gould showed {9-Hearts}

for the winning two pair.

The second and final showdown came after an all in preflop from button Patrik Selin, called by Peter Gould who showed {A-Diamonds}

against his {10-Hearts}

. Having fallen behind in chips, this would have been a quick boost back into the lead if Patrik could have caught a card, but the board came down {8-Spades}

and the Ace high propelled Gould Sr. into first place, taking the impressively sized trophy and ￡34,000, while runner up Selin receives ￡21,250. Officially.
