Jason Koon Eliminated in 2nd Place ($269,500)

Level 23 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Jason Koon

Hand 87: Koon open-jammed with the {k-Clubs}{5-Clubs} for 845,000 and Pollak looked down at the {a-Spades}{3-Spades}. Pollak took a few moments, counted his stack, used a timebank chip, and made the call.

Koon's cards were live but needed some help. A {10-Clubs}{k-Spades}{7-Spades} flop was huge for Koon but Pollak had a flush draw.

The {q-Clubs} on the turn gave Pollak some more outs and one of the 13 of them hit the river as the {6-Spades} peeled off giving Pollak a flush.

Koon received $269,500 for his runner-up finish while Pollak takes home the trophy and a top prize of $416,500.
