Level 27 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante
Gerard Rechnitzer - 3rd place
Gerard Rechnitzer - 3rd place

Mike Sexton: {K-Spades}{Q-Diamonds} / {K-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} / {Q-Clubs}
Gerard Rechnitzer: {8-Hearts}{4-Hearts} / {2-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} / {9-Diamonds}

Mike Sexton raised and Rechnitzer made it two bets, Sexton called and then fired out on fourth, Rechnitzer called and then raised all in on fifth. Sexton called with kings up and Rechnitzer showed his flush draw.

Rechnitzer finally bricked everything as Sexton rivered a full house to leave him heads up for the bracelet he won 22 years ago. He's facing Chris Viox who has battled from a short stack back many times on this final, it's sure to be a tough battle.

Viox: {K-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}/{K-Hearts}{Q-Spades}{6-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}/{X-}

Hakon Lundberg was all in on third street against Chris Viox. The split kings for Viox were in the lead against Lundberg's pair of eights going to seventh street.

Viox made kings up when the {Q-Diamonds} was dealt to him, leaving Lundberg in need of an eight to survive, but it was not meant to be as he turned over the {9-Clubs} to finish in fourth place.
