Play kicked off on Level 20 (40,000/80,000 - 10,000 ante) and shorstack Erik Seidel was eliminated pretty quickly. 63-year old businessman Khangah openlimped with A-5 suited after which Seidel shoved with 9-9 . Greenwood woke up with K-K in the small blind and went all-in and Stuer also shoved all-in with Tens from the big blind.

Khangah decided to also call and put all three players at risk!

The board ran out Q-4-J-J-2 and Seidel busted, Greenwood jumped into second place, Stuer took the side pot and Khangah was reduced to 17 big blinds.
During Level 21 (50,000/100,000 - 10,000 ante) Kolonias doubled against Stuer in a coinflip and busted a few hands later when his Q-2 couldn't improve against Greenwood's K-8 in a preflop all-in.

Dvoress managed to double up with A-K against Holz's A-7 but was eliminated not much later after losing with 8-8 against Greenwood's T-T.

Holz then busted Loosli in a coinflip and Khangah was eliminated during Level 22 (60,000/120,000 - 20,000 ante) after his K-J couldn't overcome Greenwood's A-7.
In Hand 47 of the final table Adams opened to 300,000, Kolonias (known online as Mexican222) shoved with K-K for 2,175,000 and Holz reshoved with 9-9 from the big blind.

Adams folded instantly and Kolonias was eliminated after Holz hit a full house on the 9-A-8-4-4 board.

On Level 23 (80,000/160,000 - 20,000 ante) Holz took over the lead then Adams and Greenwood played a huge flip. Greenwood played with A-K suited and managed to hit a King against Adam's 2-2.

Fedor Holz - 12,880,000
Sam Greenwood - 12,620,000

The duel was decided on Level 24 (100,000/200,000 - 25,000 ante), by this time Holz has taken a massive chiplead. In the final hand of the finale, Greenwood shoved with 6-5 suited for 3,125,000 and Holz snapped him off with A-K. The K-9-7-4-Q board ran out with a little sweat but Fedor Holz was once again unstoppable in the end.
