The heads-up battle went on for a dozen or so hands. Matthew had already doubled up once, regaining some chips and had just under 3m. In the final hand Ljuba led out in a 6-card hand on a flop of
J♦4♦10♥Matthew moved all in, Ljuba called and we went to showdown
Ljuba Q♣Q♦J♥9♦8♥5♠
Matthew J♣10♦10♣8♦4♣2♥
Matthew was ahead with two pairs and remained so after the 4♦ fell on the turn.
But it was the J♦ on the river that dealt the fatal blow.
Matthew Cox played a fierce and fearless game, but ultimatelly fell just short, departing as the 2nd place finisher for £4,060.

Ljubisa Nedimivic is the Poker.Pro sponsored £150 4/5/6 Card Pot Limit Omaha Champion. Ljuba, as he likes to be known, was 32nd on the all-time Slovenian money list, but this win for £6,290 will move him up two places into the top 30.
Congratulations to Ljuba, for a dominant display on the final table. Commiserations to Matthew, who put up a brave fight and desperately wanted to win the trophy. Despite his disappointment, it was a good natured end to the tournament.
