I don't know if you remember when in event #1 (PL World Championship) we had a sick sick final table, with like 5 out of 9 players winning a million dollars. Well, in the final table of the $2500 NLHE event, it wasn't exactly like that! Some of the guys had their first live cash ever in that table, or at least their first big cash. Still, there were some good players like Buchanan (see pic) and Levi (thx daut) and if they are there is because they deserved, it's so hard to overcome a field like that, of over a thousand people and awesome players afterall.

One of those who were close to the final table was Jason Mercier, winner of the EPT San Remo this year, but he fell a little short of that, finishing 13rd.

Let's see how the final table started

    Seat 1: Brent Hanks 755,000
    Seat 2: Steve Merrifield 1,109,000
    Seat 3: Shawn Buchanan 1,133,000
    Seat 4: Duncan Bell 1,966,000
    Seat 5: Jason Sanders 1,099,000
    Seat 6: Nathan Doudney 113,000
    Seat 7: Brent Ditzik 384,000
    Seat 8: Nicolas Levi 233,000
    Seat 9: Ariel Soffer 191,000



Well, to our surprise, the SMALLEST stack of the table didn't get eliminated soon, he finished 3rd!: Nathan Doudney, managed to work out his way up from the mere number of 113,000 chips! Thats what I call climb it up.

Duncan Bell managed to hold his chiplead during a very fast final table. It all lasted less than 4h. In the 73th hand of the day, during the heads-up, both players went all in, but Bell had AA while Merrifield had TT. No need to say he was waaaay behind and didn't get any help from the board.

So with this hand, Duncan Bell wins the #13 event of WSOP, his first bracelet and also his first big prize, in his first ever live final table. His prize was $666,777, while Merrifields consolation prize was the impressive amount of $428,949! Congratulations to the Players!

Here are the final results:


    1.Duncan Bell $666,777
    2.Steven Merrifield $428,948
    3.Nathan Doudney $260,261
    4.Shawn Buchanan $218,491
    5.Brent Hanks $178,327
    6.Jason Sanders $139,769
    7.Ariel Soffer $107,638
    8.Brent Ditzik $83,540
    9.Nicolas Levi $59,442
