After winning the first two hands of heads-up play, Keith Heine had Ryan Phan on the ropes with just 430,000 in chips.

In what would be the final hand of the tournament, Heine moved all in from the button and Phan called off.

Phan:  5h 3h

Heine:  jd 10h

Phan was drawing to two live cards, but he was nearly flopped dead when the  kd js 10c flop gave Heine two pair. The  7d turn left Phan drawing dead, and he had to settle for runner-up and a $58,296 consolation prize after the  9d was run out on the river.
