Sean Winter Forced to Settle for Second Place

Level 21 : 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Steffen Sontheimer and Sean Winter entered heads-up play with extremely deep stacks and most people were just starting to settle into what could be a long battle. However, two premium hands and it becomes quite easy to get all of the chips in the middle.

That is exactly what happened when Winter limped the button with {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts}. Sontheimer looked down at {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts} in the big blind and raised it up to 700,000. Winter three-bet to 2,000,000 and Sontheimer moved all in. Winter quickly called off his stack of 10,295,000 but was disappointed when the cards were tabled.

Sontheimer held a dominating lead and the flop of {10-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} changed nothing. The {4-Spades} on the turn provided some chop outs but the {9-Hearts} on the river locked things up. Winter was forced to settle for second place but will still take home $2,430,000 for his efforts.
