Lance Harris then bubbled the official final table and Thayer Rasmussen took a hefty lead nine-handed with Nitsche third in chips.
Englishman David Burt soon ran his short stack and into Jeff Gross’ aces to say goodbye ninth before Billy Horan took a nasty beat to bust eighth, running pocket aces into Dave D’Alesandro’s own aces and cringing as D’Alesandro four-flushed.

Bob Bounahra then started to make a move, grabbing the chip lead without showdown. But it was Nitsche who busted Jeff Gross next, sending Gross home sixth when his queens held against big slick.

Through a 92-hand heads up battle, no matter how many times D’Alesandro ground away at Nitsche and had him all in for his tournament life, he managed to double up and stay alive.
Nitsche got almost even getting it in with against D’Alesandro’s and holding.
Then suddenly in the 286th hand, Nitsche took control, getting it all in with against D’Alesandro’s and finding a way to make a heart flush on the river. Crippled, D’Alesandro finally fell when he got it in with queen-high against Nitsche’s king-high and was outdrawn again.
