After a fantastic back-and-forth battle with an all-in situation almost every hand resulting in the chip lead changing hands every few pots, Kenneth Wigfield finally sealed the deal.

In the final hand, Sebastien Poirier open-shoved all-in and Wigfield snap-called.

Poirier: {6-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}
Wigfield: {a-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}

The dealer patted the table one last time rolling out a board of {2-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{a-Spades}{j-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} and Wigfield's king-high was best earning him the win.

Poirier collected $2,300 for his runner-up finish while Wigfield will take home $3,766. Wigfield also captured 14 bounties on his route to victory adding $1,400 to his score.
