Scott Nichols fell in third place, good for $5,670 after he shoved short with J-9 on the turn against the 8-7 of Shane Melert with the final board reading 8-7-5-J. Nichols was eliminated in third place after the river bricked, good for $5,670.
That gave Melert 1.64 million at the start of heads-up play against the stack of 1.06 million held by Liam Higgins.
The final two players then decided to chop things up with $13,180 and the SPS trophy going to Melert, and Higgins taking home $10,790.
