Chris Klodnicki Eliminated in 2nd Place ($221,452)

Level 27 : 15,000/30,000, 4,000 ante
Chris Klodnicki - 2nd place
Chris Klodnicki - 2nd place

Chris Bell opened to 75,000 from the button, and Chris Klodnicki three-bet to 225,000. Bell took a minute to make sure before forcefully sticking the chips in.

The flop came out {5-Diamonds} {3-Hearts} {6-Clubs}, and Klodnicki continued out with a bet of 260,000. Bell sat in the tank for a couple minutes, then announced an all in. Klodnicki got all wide-eyed at the size of the bet, and he double-checked his cards before quietly announcing the call. Nobody was certain who had the larger stack as both men were nearly dead even throughout the duration of this heads-up battle. In any event, nearly all of the chips in play were up for grabs, and the cards were on their backs.

Showdown
Klodnicki: {4-Diamonds} {6-Hearts}
Bell: {3-Spades} {3-Clubs}

Bell was in front with his set of crabs, but Klodnicki had the pair and an open-ender to work with. The drama built as the dealer was held for a pause by the production crew. The turn, please:

Turn: {9-Diamonds}

That's no trouble for Bell, now one card away from the monster pot. Another pause followed, this one a bit shorter. Both men were standing to sweat what might be the final card of the day.

River: {Q-Clubs}

Bell wins the pot with his set of threes holding up, but there's some business to take care of. The stacks are awfully close, and Bell's is counted down at 1.918 million first. With the chips in the pot added, that should mean Bell's stack was the bigger of the two. For verification, Klodnicki's stack was cut down next, and the dealer ran out of chips somewhere in the 1.7 millions. It was a bit of a quiet finish as nobody knew for sure whether or not it was over, but indeed it was.

Klodnicki came within a straight draw of going back-to-back here at Harrah's Atlantic City, but his bid for a second gold ring has come up just short. He falls in second place, but he'll be rewarded with a consolation prize of nearly a quarter-million dollars and a $6,000 increase over his Main Event win from 2009.
