Ben Lakatos Eliminated in 2nd Place ($194,439)
Niveau 35
: 70,000/140,000, 17,500 ante
Ben Lakatos was able to climb back to more than 4 million without showdown and then faced the raise to 350,000 by Vincas Tamasauskas, which he called. On the 
flop, Lakatos opted for a check-raise from 210,000 to 1,365,000 and Tamasauskas came along.
With fewer than the pot behind, Lakatos checked the 
turn and Tamasauskas checked back. Lakatos then jammed the 
river for 2,431,831. Tamasauskas quickly called with 
for deuces over nines, which beat the 
for a wheel by Lakatos.
Just like that, the short-lived and action-packed heads-up is over and Lakatos finishes as the runner-up for $194,439. Tamasauskas has earned the maiden gold bracelet and top prize of $268,926. A recap of today's action is to follow.
