It was Fish who crashed out of the competition first.Īll-in when very short with just queen-seven offsuit, Fish was snapped off by the chip leader Briski with pocket kings. There were four Americans in the final six, including the lowest two stacks in the form of Darryll Fish (23 big blinds) and Matt Bond (22 big blinds). Sitting on 120 big blinds, Briski’s closest challenger was Sandy Sanchez with 75 big blinds, with Fred Goldberg (67 big blinds) and Rayan Chamas (55 big blinds) not far behind him. The chip leader when the TV lights were turned on was the eventual winner, Hungarian player Istvan Briski, who went into the final table with a huge advantage. That meant a prizepool of $4,630,400, and almost half of that was still on the line by the time the six-handed final table began.
