After a great heads up match between Anatoly Filatov and Brian Rast. Both players played well and it was the river again that made the difference for Rast.

Filatov shoved ace-three and Rast called with queen-ten suited. Rast hit a queen on the river to come from behind and take the lead, eliminating the top-seeded Moscow Wolverines. Rast and his Berlin Bears will now move on to face the Montreal Nationals tomorrow in the first GPL Final.
