Salixov\u2019s exit left Frank heads-up against <strong>Vladislav Donchev<\/strong>. Frank has eliminated 13 players on his way to heads-up so had a substantial bounty on his head. Frank secured the bounty on Donchev and his own scalp, resulting in his $35,814 first-place prize getting boosted by a cool $40,398. That is a $76,212 payday from a $530 buy-in.
