David Kaufmann Eliminated in 2nd Place (€804,750)
The first hand of the heads up, Barny Boatman raised his button to 1,250,000 with 7♦3♣ and David Kaufmann called in the big blind with 8♠3♠. Boatman continued for 1,150,000 on the J♥A♥4♣ flop and a quick check-fold followed from his opponent.
On the next hand, Kaufmann raised to 1,850,000 on the button and Barny Boatman three-bet to 2,850,000 in the big blind. Kaufmann made the call and the 9♠J♥6♦ flop appeared on the table.
Boatman bet 2,000,000 and Kaufmann made the call. Boatman then shoved all in on the 5♦ turn, covering Kaufmann's stack of 11,175,000.
Kaufmann spent some time pondering his decision but eventually made the call and the cards were flipped over.
David Kaufmann: A♦9♣
Barny Boatman: J♦2♦
Boatman's top pair was in great shape to knock out Kaufmann and secure his first EPT Main Event victory. The Q♣ river could not upgrade Kaufmann's second pair and he had to console himself with ending as runner-up at the 2024 EPT Paris Main Event.
