After losing the first few pots of significance in the heads-up duel, Gavin O’Rourke found a double to get back in it.

O’Rourke: AsKc
Patel: Ah4d

The flop came down 8d6d2d, giving Patel a flush draw.

However, the 8s turn and 8c river were safe for O’Rourke to double.

Gavin O’Rourke – 1,560,000
Talesh Patel – 2,080,000
