The pocket rockets struck again at the final table! Justin Allen moved all-in with the "parking lot hand" A♦Q♦, but Matthew Ludlow woke up with A♠A♣, proving that even premium hands can run into monsters.
The board brought no diamonds or help for Allen, who after earlier eliminating Donovan Bragg with pocket fours, now finds himself falling to pocket aces. Allen exits in 3rd place while Ludlow heads to heads-up play with momentum.
