Kevin Iacofano & Gloria Balding

The first Kroner millionaire has been created from the finalists. It's Kevin Iacofano, who busted in 4th after Michael Tureniec finessed a call all-in from him on the river. Tureniec on the button bet down the streets, called on the {10-Clubs}{10-Spades}{7-Hearts} flop by Iacofano. The American check-called the {5-Hearts} turn as well (200k).

The river saw the drama ratchet up, as Tureniec bet the {2-Diamonds} in the most extreme way, moving all-in for more than his opponent had in front of him. Iacofano thought about it for a while, finally calling with {A-Clubs}{7-Spades}. He shook his head when he saw Tureniec's {10-Hearts}{8-Spades} and went for what is one of the saddest interviews we at Pokernews have seen post-bustout.

"My gut was telling me to call, so I did it, but we all know heroes die."
