The heads-up battle would of course be hosted on PokerStars and to replicate the situation from the WSOP final table, the players would start with the same starting stacks that they began heads-up with last year.

Three big hands (2 in a row at the end) went Demidov's way to give him the win. First was Eastgate with pocket 5's against Demidov's king queen off, the latter catching a king on the flop. Then it was Eastgate with ace two suited against Demidov's ace king off, neither hand improving to give Demidov the pot and the chip lead. Then the final hand was Eastgate with pocket 4's against Demidov with pocket tens. Demidov led all the way and caught a ten on the river for a full-house.
Congratulations to Ivan Demidov for winning the match and picking up $10,000 for his charity of choice.
