Eriquezzo survived to short-handed play without scoring a knockout and then was able to take over the lead during four-handed action. Kurt Lichtman knocked out Richard Hanheide Jr. in fourth place ($41,613), but then found himself as the next player heading to the rail. He called Eriquezzo’s shove from the small blind with 77. Eriquezzo showed the Q9. The board ran out A94210 and Lichtman was eliminated in third place ($56,103).

With that Eriquezzo took more than a 3-to-1 chip lead into heads up play against Denis Gnidash. The shorter stack found a quick double up with pocket kings to event things out a bit, but Eriquezzo was able to regain control right away.
