Jul 04, '07
Heads-up play was a short fought battle between Graves and Tran. Theo was able to mount a small comeback attempt picking up four consecutive pots leading up to the final hand.
Graves and Tran both saw a flop of 5
4
7
with Graves holding 6
5
and Tran holding 9
8
. Graves bet out and Tran quickly shoved. Just as quickly Graves made the call and you could see the disgust in Tran's face. Tran would need a six or a nine to double up and keep his bracelet hopes alive. The turn was a K
and the river a T
giving Graves the pot and the bracelet.
Theo Tran finishes the event in 2nd place winning $387,193.
Michal Graves wins $742,121 and the coveted gold bracelet to go with it in Event #52, the $1,000 No Limit Hold 'Em with Rebuys.
