Nick Petrangelo raised to 60,000 on the button and Kou Vana called out of the big blind. The flop was KcQh4d and Vana checked.

Petrangelo bet 100,000 and Vana moved all in for about 400,000. Petrangelo quickly called. Petrangelo showed Kc2d and was in the lead against Vana’s Qd9s.

The turn was the Ks and Vana was drawing dead to the 5h river. Petrangelo scoops the pot and wins the tournament. He took home $93,208 for his win and Vana earned $53,480 for his runner-up finish.
