8.34pm: Georgios Zisimopoulos wins IPT Malta for €142,205; Jaroslaw Sikora eliminated in 2nd place (€97,975)
Jaroslaw Sikora moved in for 3 million preflop and Georgios Zisimopoulos asked for a count.

"Ok, I call," said the Greek player.

Zisimopoulos: [Ah][4d]
Sikora: [Ad][Kd]

The flop came [6h][4s][2s] and neither player looked surprised despite the fact Zisimopoulos had jumped into the leader. The [Tc] turn changed nothing, only a king would do for the Polish player. The river was the [2c], the ultimate blank! Jaroslaw Sikora went out in second place winning €97,975 while Georgios Zisimopoulos takes the additional €28,000 set aside for the winner after the five-way deal. Stay tuned for a full recap of the event.

Jaroslaw Sikora

8.29pm: No change
The chip stacks haven't changed so far, Jaroslaw Sikora has few options at this moment. If he can get a double-up then that could all change.

8.20pm: Heads-up begins!
And our final two players begin their heads-up battle. It's going to be a tough slog for Jaroslaw Sikora, he starts with just 15 big blinds.

8.00pm: Break
There will now be a 20-minute break before the heads-up battle. Georgios Zisimopoulos will start with around 28.225 million to Jaroslaw Sikora's 3.725 million.

7.56pm: Nicolino di Carlo eliminated in 3rd place (€119,585)
Nicolino di Carlo opened to 500,000 preflop and Georgios Zisimopoulos made it 1.5 million, di Carlo moved in for 7.7 million and Zisimopoulos called.

Di Carlo: [9h][9d]
Zisimopoulos: [Ah][Jh]

The flop came [Ad][8s][3c] and Zisimopoulos jumped into the lead. The [4s] on the turn left Di Carlo with just one of two black nines to hit but the river was the [2s] - a true blank. The Italian, who was chip leader for much of the day, is out in third.

The [Jh] on the turn help neither player but the river was the [Ts] to make Zisimopoulos two pair on the river. Zisimopoulos' chip lead is huge now, he has around 19 million of the 32 million in play. Nicolino di Carlo has about 9.6 million while Jaroslaw Sikora has the rest.
