Scott Kittle just won his match, with the last hand providing a somewhat unusual finish.

The community cards for the final hand together constituted an A-2-3-4-5 straight. Kittle tabled his cards, but his short-stacked opponent who had been all in didn't see the straight and mucked. He realized it afterwards, but by then it was too late, and Kittle moves on.
