Very nice win for him. Was watching on espn3 until I doze off. He was short with 3 left then switched gears. Some people dont like having these events as bracelet events (mainly because of the small fields and small prizepools) but I think its great. It makes the game bigger and expands it to other parts of the world. Overtime, I think these events are only going to get bigger because nothing is better than a wsop bracelet. Cant wait til wsop in the summer, I love watching all those final tables.
