Just before heads-up play begins, Carlos Solerti and Al Borges decided to chop the remaining prize money and play it out for the trophy.

Just a few hands later, the tournament came to an end.

On a flop of [Jd][Td][6d], Al Borges checks and Carlos Solerti bets 400,000. Borges moves all-in and Solerti calls. They turn up:

Borges - [Kd][6s]
Solerti - [Qd][Jc]

Solerti has top pair with a queen high flush draw while Borges holds bottom pair and a king high flush draw. The [Ad] on the turn seals the deal for Borges as he makes the nut flush. The [As] falls on the river and Solerti is eliminated in 2nd place for $37,543.
