Ronald Kaepernick Eliminated in 2nd Place ($22,500)
Level 30
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
In just the second hand of heads-up play, Ronald Kaepernick moved all in with 10♥8♦ for his last 2,800,000 and got called by Ian Auvil with K♦9♥.
Auvil was on the verge of an incredible win after coming back from three big blinds.
The flop came 3♠4♥2♠, bringing no help to Kaepernick.
The A♣ turn brought Kaepernick some chop outs, but the 9♠ locked down the hand for Auvil with a pair of nines to take the title.
Kaepernick takes home $22,500 for his runner-up finish, while Auvil was declared the champion.
