The heads-up duel between Gerard Piqu�� and Juan Pardo lasted all but a few moments and it was a flip that decided over the outcome of the tournament with the chips in the middle preflop.
Gerard Piqu��: 
Juan Pardo: 
The mighty ducks were marginally ahead on the 
flop and Piqu�� even picked up a flush draw on the 
turn. However, it wasn't meant to be as the 
river came a blank to eliminate the FC Barcelona defender in 2nd place for �352,950.
