The turn and river were the KClub Suit and the 7Diamond Suit, giving both players a club flush on the turn, but Van Der Fluit’s jack-high flush defeated Tonne’s flush to the ten and Van Der Fluit gets the gold. Charles Tonne was eliminated in 2nd place ($154,132) while Vincent Van Der Fluit wins Event no. 11, taking him the $265,221 grand prize and the eleventh gold bracelet of the 2012 WSOP.
