After a long spell of equality on the final table of the ParadisePoker Tour, two exits came almost from nowhere to take us to heads-up play.
First to go was the ParadisePoker Tour London's last 'home' player Jim Reid (pictured), who finished in fourth after returning the chips he had earlier won from Christos Xanthopoulous.
The PPT blog mused earlier on karma for Christos after the Greek suffered a bizarre bad beat at the hands of his British rival, but only now was it complete as Reid mistimed his aggressive streak and ran into Aces in a three-bet pot.
Just minutes later it was Peter Csecsetka who followed him out the door, as yet again a blind battle sparked fireworks.
Luis Rodrigues was the beneficiary this time around, showing his sound judgement skills again when he called his Hungarian opponent's pre-flop all-in with the 6s that held up against Csecsetka's 7♦5♣.
Reid collected £10,750 for his fourth-place finish, while Csecsetka's third is worth a cool £12,550.
