Heads-up was a brief affair, with Yang Wang and Ivan Leow taking it in turns to shove or fold before finally the inevitable happened and there was an all-in and a call. It was Wang the man to pull the trigger first, shoving the button with Leow making a quick call from the big blind.

Ivan Leow:
Wang needed a double-up to get back into the game, but was behind to Leow's pair and stayed that way when the board ran out and it was all over. Wang congratulated Leow on his well-earned victory, posed for a photo and then headed off into the night HKD $921,000 better off. Leow celebrated the fact he had just won his first-ever tournament title with the watching Malaysian rail before posing for his winner's picture as the inaugural Oriental Poker Championship High Roller Champion.
