Once again, a flurry of preflop raises led to the cards being on their backs and a chance for Andreas Krause to win the tournament.

Krause: {5-Clubs}{5-Spades}
Clavet: {A-Clubs}{7-Spades}

The {Q-Spades}{3-Spades}{3-Clubs} flop kept Krause's pair in the lead. When the {3-Diamonds} hit the turn, Clavet's supporters were vehemently calling for an ace or the last three in the deck, but it was the {4-Diamonds} that fell and clinched the hand for Krause.

Mathieu Clavet's impressive run has come to an end with a runner-up finish for $285,850.
