Artem Metadili completed the small blind, Jon Turner raised to 255,000 out of the big blind, and Metadili announced he was all-in for 1,380,000 total. Turner asked the dealer for a count, but as soon as he had a ballpark on the amount, he called with AHeart Suit9Heart Suit. Metadili had the best of it with QClub SuitQSpade Suit.

The KHeart Suit8Club Suit4Heart Suit flop gave Turner a flush draw, and the JClub Suit on the turn kept Metadili out front. The river brought the ADiamond Suit, giving Turner a pair, the pot, and the victory.

Metadili finishes as the runner-up, pocketing $329,860 for his efforts, which is his second-largest career cash behind a runner-up finish in the $3,000 Six-Handed No-Limit Hold’em event at the 2012 WSOP.

Turner, meanwhile, pockets an impressive $536,838 for besting the 537-entry field. It is a career-high score for the longtime poker pro, whose live tournament earnings now exceed $2.5 million.

That brings the Card Player Poker Tour Venetian DeepStack III main event. A full recap of the tournament and Turner’s victory will be posted shortly.
