And there's no drama, once we see the flop the chop was guaranteed.
So, on we go. Jolly good.
With Blinds at 70,000 - 140,000 Mark is down to about 9 BB & is desperately looking for a spot, & suddenly, it's all-in & a call.
Chris has the K-J suited, Mark has the K-K.
Will the Kings hold?
Absolutely, though there was a mini-sweat.
So, Mark is right back in it.
01.55.
Nothing much happening here, the chips are just going back & forth.
A 1.2 million chip pot goes off & goes check check on the end.
Mark Tables J-7 for a pair of 7's.
Chris also tables J-7 for a pair of 7's.
Wait a minute, could this be it?
An A-4-6 flop, Chris has a straight draw with 3-5 & Mark has the Ace, both players have backdoors & a spade turns to give Chris extra outs.
Chris misses both his draws & ends up with 1 pair & Mark, who was getting low again, gets the 2XUp with 2 pairs Aces & 5's.
So, on we go.
Mark takes a big pot with 8-8 & guess what, Mark is slight chippie again.
Everyone on the Rail wants this to end, but fair play to the two lads who have shown great patience.
Mark moves all-in on the A-J-4-2 board & after a lengthy dwell Chris.....
...passes
02.40
Break time.
Mark 1.9 million
Chris - the rest. (6.75 million)
Chip counts are approx.
Blinds will go 100,000-200,000 when they resume.
Amazing really, this Heads Up has been in progress for around 3 hours I believe, & we've yet to see "big on big" or a flip.
Oh my.
All in & a call.
Mark has K-9, & Chris has K-5
And Chris hits the turn to win the Tournament...
But wait......
Mark find the 9 on the River to double up.
Crazy scenes at 03.05 on a Monday morning.
Amazing after such an early FT, u would have thought they could have ICM Chop and played one hand for the trophy
And at 03.54, there's an All-In & a call. Mark is the at risk player, he's slightly ahead with A-6hh v Chris's A-4 offsuit, but a chop is likely.
