Romain Morvan Eliminated in 2nd Place (A$240,000)
Level 31
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
And just like that, it was all over!
Nelson Dong limped in and Romain Morvan raised to 1,300,000. Dong responded with a three-bet to 2,800,000, and Morvan quickly shoved. Dong snap-called!
Romain Morvan: A♦J♣ 
Nelson Dong: K♥K♣
Dong had a golden opportunity to seal the title — he just needed his Cowboys to hold. The camera crews, media team, and railbirds crowded around as the dealer fanned a flop of 8♠6♥10♠ — a safe one for Dong.
Morvan still had some backdoor possibilities, but it was an ace he truly needed. The 3♥ turn slammed the door on any comeback hopes, leaving Morvan down to just three outs.
The river 6♦ sealed the deal, and with that, Morvan bowed out in second place.
