Final Table Action
The champ went into the final table with the chip lead, but Robl quickly jumped ahead with the surprise elimination of Mike ��YagamiLight�� Watson in sixth place. Watson shoved with ace-king, but Robl turned over pocket aces to take the pot and the commanding chip lead.
David ��dpeters17�� Peters and Daniel ��DLAZ14�� Lazrus duked it out in the final five, and Lazrus doubled through Peters twice to leave the four-time bracelet winner short. However, Peters spiked a river to double through Daniel ��DNegs�� Negreanu with a straight and it was the six-time bracelet winner who hit the rail in fifth place when Robl beat his pocket jacks with ace-eight.
Peters continued on to manage back-to-back doubles before finally bowing out in fourth place when his ace-five was no good against Lodge's ace-king.
Lodge and Robl battled for the opportunity to send Lazrus home in third place, but it was Robl that prevailed when his king-eight caught up to pocket queens. The elimination gave Robl more than 3.6 million in chips in heads-up play against Lodge with just 1.3 million.
The tide quickly turned however when Lodge made a flush and cashed in on Robl��s big river bluff. The big moment came a short time later when Lodge turned over ace-king to beat Robl��s queen-jack.
Other notable players that made a deep run include Dario ��Sirio87�� Sammartino, who finished just outside the final table in seventh. Darren ��kingstayking�� Elias held the chip lead at different points in the early part of the day, but he eventually finished in 10th place. Adrian ��Poker4202�� Mateos was also an early chip leader, and he ran all the way to 18th place.
