Steve Azizi just took a big lead in heads-up play. He and Justin Pennell were nearly dead even in chips for most of heads-up, but they just got into a big confrontation. Pennell shoved the button with ace-trey, and Azizi called with Q♥J♥.
It was a not-so-classic race, with a not-so-classic runout that gave Azizi the queen high straight on 9♥9♠8♣7♠10♦. The hand left Pennell under 10 bigs, but he doubled back shortly after, and they are still battling.
