Play would again slow with five players left as players became more deliberate in their action as the prize money increased until ��Snow��s Crazy Aye?�� was knocked out in fifth place. ��Rocksolid03����s elimination in fourth place brought the field down to three.
Three-handed play looked poised to last a while as all three players had healthy stacks, but instead ��Kroat.�� Lost momentum quickly and was eliminated in short order.
��274AS�� held a slight lead with 55% of the chips at the start of heads up play but ��Fedor Kruse�� would turn that around in his favor as he took a 55/45 lead himself after a few hands. But ��274AS made a key call with a pocket pair of threes on a board with over cards when ��Fedor Kruse�� was bluffing with nothing. That substantial pot sent him into a nice lead; from which he would not look back finished the job after about twenty more minutes of play.
