In a limped pot, the flop came 2♣J♦4♦ and Gregory checked to Hawkins, who bet 7,200,000. Gregory then raised to put Hawkins all in for 18,200,000, which Hawkins quickly called to put himself at risk.
Maurice Hawkins: K♦J♠9♣2♠
Brent Gregory: 7♥5♠4♥4♣
Hawkins flopped two pair but was in rough shape against the set of Gregory. The 6♦ on the turn changed nothing, and the 9♠ on the river completed the board to give Gregory the pot and complete the heads-up comeback to eliminate Hawkins in second place.
