The action on the final hand happened in an instant. Erik Seidel was on the button and raised to 100,000. Chino Rheem moved all in and Seidel quickly made the call.

Seidel: {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts}
Rheem: {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}

The flop was {8-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds} and the turn was the {3-Diamonds}. That left Seidel with only two outs or Chino Rheem would become the Epic Poker League's very first Main Event Champion. The river was the {10-Diamonds} and gave Rheem the nuts, officially eliminating Erik Seidel.
