The chips had been going back and forth between Arne Ruge and John Gordon but the chip lead stayed with Ruge the whole time. After several levels of heads-up, the final hand eventually played out.

John Gordon: {A-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}
Arne Ruge: {3-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}

The board ran out {J-Spades}{J-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{K-Spades} - no help for Gordon as he was eliminated.

"It was a pleasure to play with you." Ruge said to Gordon while they shook hands.
