Francisco Henschl (pictured) and Muaaz Gani tangled in a large pot earlier at the final table and this time, Gani got the better of his neighbor.

Gani limped the small blind and Henschl checked his option. Gani bet 80,000 on the Club JDiamond 9Diamond 3 flop and Henschl went to 450,000. Gani shoved, barely having Henschl covered and Henschl called for 1,760,000 with Club KHeart J.

Gani was drawing with Heart QHeart 10 and hit the Diamond K turn to take the lead. Henschl needed a king or jack to fill up but the Diamond 5 sent him out. The stacks were counted down and Gani took the rest of Henschl’s stack to move up to 3,650,000.

The next hand after Gani doubled, Chris Convery doubled his 1,025,000 stack against Jaime Vilela. The chips went in on a flop of Club AClub 6Heart 3.

Convery held Heart ASpade 3 and held against Vilela’s flush draw Club JClub 10. Vilela falls to 700,000 and is the table short stack.
