Brent Hanks opened to 60,000 from the small blind only to have Nicolas Levi three-bet to 160,000. Hanks deliberated for a few moments before pushing roughly his last 600,000 all in and getting instantly called by Levi.

Hanks: {A-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}
Levi: {7-Diamonds}{7-Spades}

The flop of {9-Spades}{9-Hearts}{5-Spades} kept Levi in the lead, and when the {7-Clubs} landed on the turn it gave him a lock on the hand.

With the meaningless {3-Clubs} falling on the river, Hanks made his way round the table shaking hands with his opponents before vacating the final table in 6th place for a $71,998 payday.
