First to fall at the final table was Harvey Sellick, whose ace-queen couldn’t win the race against Mark Kelsall’s pair of black fours, before Chung sent Colin Gillon to the rail in seventh place when his pocket sevens flopped a set to best the top pair of Gillon.

Chuck Khuu busted in sixth place after running into the pocket kings of Kelsall. A five million chip pot was created after the pair were all-in preflop, Khuu holding ace-queen. Khuu paired his queen on a paired flop, but Kelsall turned a full house to leave Khuu drawing dead.

Next to fall was Justin Sevilla who moved all-in blind from the small blind with what turned out to be a suited nine-six only for William Bennet to call with ace-three. A three on the turn ended up being more than enough to despatch Sevilla.

Four-handed play did not last long because Bennet moved all-in from the small blind with a respectable holding in ace-eight only for Chun Law to wake up in the big blind with a pair of red kings. Law then improved to quad kings on the flop to reduce the player count by one.

The final three players decided to pause the tournament clock to discuss a deal based on ICM. An agreement was reached that saw Kelsall take £66,020, Chung £61,500 and Law £57,480; this deal left the trophy and £15,000 for the champion and an additional £5,000 for the runner-up.

It turned out to be a good deal for Law because he was the next player eliminated. Law raised all-in over a flop bet by Kelsall with the board being ace-high with two diamonds. Kelsall called with top set and needed to fade diamonds because Law held nine-eight of diamonds. Fade Kelsall did as the turn and river came out clubs and spades to sent the tournament to the heads-up stage.

The chip counts were almost level going into heads-up, Chung holding 24,800,000 and Kelsall 25,400,000 but a cooler of a hand put all of the chips in Chung’s stack.

Kelsall opened to 1,200,000 and called when Chung three-bet to 3,500,000. Chung continued for 3,000,000 on the flop and Kelsall called.
