$1k Final Results
3rd Place: Danny Qutami ($22,140)
From the small blind, Danny Qutami raised to 95,000 before Nicky Vu reraised to 350,000. Danny thought for some time before moving all-in for just over 1,400,000. Nicky snapped called with a slightly covering stack.
Danny [Jh][Th]
Nicky [Qs][Qh]
The board ran out [As][Ad][3h][8h][7d] to keep Nicky's queens in front. Danny failed to river a flush and will exit this tournament in 3rd place, good for $22,140.
Nicky Vu doubles through Dustin Wood
At 15,000/30,000 blinds with a 30,000 big blind ante, Nicky Vu opened to 80,000 from the small blind. Dustin Wood three-bet to 200,000 before Nicky moved all in for 845,000. After some thought, Dustin made the call with a covering stack.
Nicky [Ah][Jh]
Dustin [Ad][8d]
The board ran out [3d][Tc][7h][2h][2s] to earn Nicky the doubleup. Meanwhile, Dustin's stack has fallen to just over 600,000.
4th Place: Wilson Chan ($13,470)

Wilson [Ks][6h]
Dustin [As][Tc]
The board ran out [5s][9c][5c][2s][3d] and Dustin's ace high held up. Wilson will exit this tournament in 4th place, good for $13,470.

Wilson Chan - 1,085,000 (36 bb)
Nicky Vu doubles through Wilson Chan
After doubling up with ace-seven to Danny Qutami's ace-jack, Nicky Vu was all in again and had one foot out the door. After three-betting Wilson Chan preflop, Nicky got the rest of his chips in on the [Th][4s][Qs] flop holding [As][Ac]. Wilson had gotten lucky and flopped two pair with his [Qh][Tc]. The [Js] gave Nicky a lot of outs, and when the [7s] hit the river, Nicky shot out of his seat and shouted, "Let's go!" Wilson was dismayed to pay off his opponent's nut flush, but Nicky was happy to win the doubleup and survive in this tournament.
5th Place: Hieu Le ($10,400)
It was a combination of two hands that eliminated Hieu Le.
In the first, Hieu opened before Dustin Wood moved all in. Hieu made the call holding [Ks][Js] and was in bad shape against Dustin's [Qh][Qc]. The [2d][7c][9c][9h][Td] board failed to improve Hieu's hand, and he shipped most of his stack over to Dustin.
A few hands later, he got the rest of his chips in holding [7s][3s] on a [6d][Ks][5s] board. Hieu had tons of outs with his straight and flush draws against Wilson Chan's [Ad][Kc]. But the [Qd] turn and [8c] river failed to deliver on those draws.
Hieu will exit this tournament in 5th place, good for $10,400.
6th Place: Cnote ($8,620)
At 10,000/20,000 blinds with a 20,000 big blind ante, Dustin Wood opened to 60,000 and Cnote made the call. Action folded to Wilson Chan in the big blind who moved in over the top, having both of his opponents covered. Dustin got out of the way and Cnote thought long and hard before eventually calling all in.
Wilson [9s][9d]
Cnote [Qs][Jc]
Dustin claimed to have folded ace queen and said if he didn't have Cnote behind him he would have called. The board ran out [6d][Ad][8s][9c][Qc] to keep Wilson's nines in front and send Cnote to the rail. He will earn $8,620 for his 6th place finish.
Hieu Le doubles through Dustin Wood
Dustin Wood recently took a chunk of chips from Wilson Chan in a button vs. small blind battle, but he had to ship those chips and more over to Hieu Le. Hieu was all in preflop for 440,000 holding [Qs][Qh] and was flipping with Dustin's [Ac][Kh]. The board ran out [2s][Tc][8h][Ts][Js] to give Hieu the double up.
8th Place: Jasthi Kumar ($6,280)
On the first hand back from break, Jasthi Kumar moved all in for his last 115,000 from under the gun. Action folded to Wilson Chan who made the call with his big stack.
Jasthi [3s][3c]
Wilson [5d][4d]
The board ran out [9s][Tc][4c][Ks][Th] to give Wilson the winning pair of fours. Jasthi will exit this tournament in 8th place, good for $6.280.
