Shaun Deeb wins his first WSOP bracelet in the $10,000 Pot Limit Hold'em Championship
8
The final table of the $10,000 Pot Limit Hold'em Championship was one of the most stacked finales in the history of the World Series of Poker, every single player at the final table was an accomplished professional. The last man standing was Shaun Deeb, who won his first bracelet and $318,857 after defeating Paul ''paulgees81'' Volpe in heads-up.
The final table of Event #15 $10,000 Pot Limit Hold'em Championship started with the following stacks and seating.
Seat 1. Shaun Deeb - 488.000
Seat 2. Paul Volpe - 586.000
Seat 3. Jason Koon - 890.000
Seat 4. Ismael Bojang - 80.000
Seat 5. Dario Sammartino - 529.000
Seat 6. Kristijonas Andrulis - 288.000
Seat 7. Greg Merson - 276.000
Seat 8. Sam Stein - 299.000
Seat 9. Tom Marchese - 180.000
Seat 10. Jason Les - 213.000
The first player to be eliminated was Tom Marchese after his A9 failed to improve against Sam Stein's A-K. Not much later, Greg Merson doubled up, he bet three streets (all-in on the river) with A-A on a board of 3-8-8-2-6 and Volpe check/called him all the way down with K-K.
In the 7th hand of the final table Les doubled up through Koon in an A-A vs. K-K preflop all-in. Koon, who started the day as the chip leader was left with 188,000 chips, which he lost in the next hand with A-Q against Deeb's K-K.
In Hand 18 mix-game specialist Ismael Bojang ran his A-K into Volpe's K-K and couldn't improve, he received $37,227 for his eighth place finish.
Andrulis finished in 7th place, he lost a preflop all-in with K-J suited against Volpe's A-Q suited.
During Level 23 (12,000/24,000) Deeb opened to 48,000 from the hijack, Sammartino raised the pot which was more than enough to put him all-in, and Deeb called. Sammartino showed K-K, dominating Deeb's 4-4, unfortunately for the Italian player, Deeb hit a 4 on the flop to eliminate him.
2012 WSOP Main Event champion Greg Merson finished in 5th place, he 3bet/called all-in with K-J but failed to improve against Volpe's A-Q.
Not much later Deeb repeated the move that sent Sammartino packing, and flopped a set on the flop with 9-9 against Stein's T-T.
Sam Stein was busted in Hand 43 of the final table, and the next elimination didn't take place until Hand 173, when Jason Les lost his stack with A-9 against Volpe's A-T.
Paul Volpe - 1.955.000
Shaun Deeb - 1.855.000
Heads-up play started and finished on Level 27 (30,000/60,000). Deeb won a huge pot with A-A on a board of A-5-2-7-5, Volpe mucked and was left crippled. He managed to double up twice, but in the third preflop all-in his 7-2 failed to improve against Deeb's A-8.
After being hugely successful online for years, Shaun Deeb has won his first bracelet and $318.857.
