Scott Seiver is the winner of the $5000 NLHE event, the same event I mentioned a couple posts ago, where n0rthface finished in the money. Among the finalists were internet pros Adam "csimmsux" Geyer and Scott "SCTrojans" Freeman. Take a look:
Scott Seiver: 2,512,000
Rajesh Vohra: 1,040,000
Jacobo Fernandez: 848,000
Dave Seidman: 653,500
Adam Geyer: 645,000
Ben Sprengers: 441,000
Chuck Sklar: 439,000
Scott Freeman: 645,000
Anders Henriksson: 311,000
Seiver had a sick day 2, thats the explanation for his nice lead. To make things worse (for his opponents) he started the final table winning 6 out of the 11 initial hands of the day. He also didn't have any major problem during the final table, until he finally got to the heads-up against Dave Seidman. He (Seidman) actually "joined" the game again after he was double up by Seiver, before that he was kind of in the middle with the other guys. He went all-in preflop with only to see he was behind of Seiver's kings. However, a seven on the river gave him the Jack high straight, making his chips go over a million.
After this chips-double-up we can say that both guys dominated the table. They, together, were responsible for 7 of the eliminations. All the players, except for Anders Henriksson were eliminated by one or other.
The heads-up itself lasted something around 45min, and the final hand of the tournament was the following:
Seiver moved all-in after being reraised by Seidman on the . He was ahead with , while Seidman's cards were . The turn was a and the river . Seidman's hand didn't improve and he was eliminated as 2nd for the prize of $482,372.
Scott Seiver wins the whole thing, plus $755,891 and the bracelet. Its his 3rd cash in this years WSOP.
