Moussa Ahmad raised to 600,000 from the small blind and Stefan Kiwisch jammed for 4,875,000 from the big blind. Ahmad called and had the chance to send the tournament heads-up.
Stefan Kiwisch: A♠4♠
Moussa Ahmad: A♣5♣
Both players had a suited ace, and a chop looked like the most likely outcome.
Neither player improved on the 7♦3♣10♥ flop, but both hit a pair of aces when the A♥ fell on the turn.
Ahmad was asking the dealer for a deuce, as only one of them or a five would send Kiwisch to the rail. A 2♣ peeled off on the river, and Ahmad's five-kicker played, eliminating Kiwisch in third place.
