Leo Margets limped in the small blind, Alex Kulev raised to 2.4 million, and Margets called.

The flop came {9-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{3-Spades}, and that proved to be quite an action flop.

Kulev bet 4.1 million, Margets jammed for 20.4 million, and Kulev called.

Leo Margets: {q-Spades}{5-Spades}
Alex Kulev: {a-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}

Kulev had top pair top kicker and Margets had middle pair and a flush draw. The {5-Clubs} hit the turn to put Margets ahead with trips, and the {10-Hearts} completed the board to send her the massive pot.

Kulev was left with only 1.8 million chips which he jammed in on the next hand and was called.

Alex Kulev: {10-Spades}{4-Hearts}
Leo Margets: {k-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}

The board ran out {q-Spades}{7-Spades}{6-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} and Margets officially completed the heads-up comeback to win the tournament and the gold bracelet, meanwhile, Kulev will have to settle for the $232,920 runner-up prize as consolation for his strong efforts.
