Peter Aristidou Wins Shootout
It's all over! A tough heads-up battle has been decided by a tremendous river call to give Peter Aristidou the victory and make Ben Savage a very happy man.

The hand started with Dave Lee raising from the button to 7,000 and Peter Aristidou making the call in the big blind.

The flop came down {9-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} and Aristidou checked over to Lee who fired 11,000. Aristidou made the call. The turn brought the {6-Clubs} and this time Aristidou led for 16,000 before Lee popped it to 40,000. Aristidou made a deliberate call and the players went to the {2-Spades} river.

Aristidou checked over to Lee who announced he was all in. It was a bet of over 80,000 chips and Aristidou went into the tank. He stood from his chair before he declared a call.

"You got me," said Lee and flipped {Q-Clubs}{8-Hearts} as Aristidou slammed his cards down onto the felt in delight as his {A-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} was good with just ace-high! A remarkable call to win the tournament!
