The Heads-Up was a Scandinavian affair as Tobergsen competed with Swede Simon Lofberg for the bracelet. The latter had a slight chiplead to begin with, but “skjervoy” soon got back to even.

Then a massive cooler emerged, when both players flopped the straight with Tobergsen having the idiot end of it.
