On the very first hand of heads up play, Jason Somerville raised his button to 125,000. Yashar Darian three-bet to 350,000. Somerville thought for a bit before counting out chips to make a 950,000 raise. Just as he was sliding this chips in, Darian announced that he was all in and Somerville snapped him off.

Somerville: {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}
Darian: {k-Spades}{4-Diamonds}

Although Somerville had the chip lead entering heads up play, this pot was for about 90% of the chips and would more or less determine a champion. The flop came out {7-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{k-Diamonds} and Somerville wouldn't win his first bracelet without a sweat. The turn was the {2-Clubs} but he still had to dodge five outs. The river bricked with the {6-Hearts} and Darian finished just one short of the bracelet.
