Ryan Hefter: 
Alexander Lakhov: 
The board came 
and the defending champion doubled.
Right after, John Racener opened from early position and called the shove of Chris Ferguson in the big blind for 3,300. Racener showed 
and was trailing the 
of Ferguson. Racener got there on the 
flop, but Ferguson turned the 
to make the 
river a formality.
The battle of the "player of the year" contenders went to Ferguson, who remains short on 10 big blinds.
