Tim Lahey and Mike Correnti were counting their chips and discussing a deal when they apparently started playing again. On the first hand of heads up play, Tim pushed all in from the button and Mike called him. Tim had [Ac][Qd] against Mike's [Td][Tc]. The flip was for almost all of the chips in play, and the board ran out [3c][7h][4h][Qc][Kd] to award the pot to Mike. The tournament staff counted down his stack, and Tim had just a few chips more than Mike.
Mike put them to use in the very next hand, and doubled up on the river with [Ks][8c] against [Ac][4d] on a [Jd][Ts][Jc][2d][Kh] board. Unfortunately, his next attempt to double up didn't go as well, as Mike's [Jd][5h] was dominated by Jim's [Js][Ts]. Jim hit his pair on the [2c][As][Tc] flop, and it held up through the [9c] turn and [9s] river.
Tim fought a hard battle, but will exit this tournament in 2nd place, good for $18,252.
