Der beste No-Limit-Hold’em-Spieler der Welt – auf jeden Fall nach eigener Einschätzung – hat diese Nacht sein erstes Bracelet in einem Tubo-Turnier gewonnen.
Endergebnis Turnier #23: $1.000 NLH Turbo
Mitspieler: 1.473
Buy-In: $900 + $100
Preispool: $1.325.700
Sieger: Doug Polk ($251.969)
Verlauf Finale
Dieses Turbo-Turnier bei der WSOP war an Geschwindigkeit kaum zu überbieten. Schon am ersten Tag schieden 1.464 von 1.473 Mitspielern aus und das Geschehen an den Tischen hatte mehr Ähnlichkeit mit der Reise nach Jerusalem als mit einem Pokerturnier.
Am Final-Table ging es dann ein wenig übersichtlicher zu, auch wenn gleich in der zweiten Hand der erste Spieler (Andrew Mackenzie) ausschied. Diese Hand hatte es in sich, denn hier callte Andy Philachack auf einem 8 7 4 –Flop einen All-In-Raise in halber Pot-Größe mit J 10 – einem Gutshot und Bube-hoch. Aber erstaunlicherweise lag Philachack damit gegen Mackenzies 10 9 noch in Front. Turn und River änderten nichts am Board und so wurde Andrew Mackenzie durch Bube-hoch eliminiert.
Den restlichen Final-Table bestimmten vor allem Douglas Polk und Andy Philachack, die für einen Großteil der Eliminierungen verantwortlich waren und es beide ins Heads-Up schafften.
Dort hatte Polk eine leichte Führung, baute diese aus und sah schon wie der sichere Sieger aus als er mit JJ gegen Phliachaks A3s all-in war. Allerdings fiel auf dem River ein Ass und Phliachak durfte noch einmal verdoppeln.
Dann allerdings machte Douglas Polk den Sack zu: Auf einem 10 8 3 3 J –Board riverte er sich mit 9 7 eine Straße und passenderweise hatte Phliachak mit 5 3 Trips, so dass auf dem River alle Chips in die Mitte gingen.
Douglas Polk, der sich letztes Jahr in einer Rangliste der besten Heads-Up-No-Limit-Hold’em-Spieler selbst auf Platz eins setzte, gewann so sein erstes Bracelet und über 250.000 Dollar. Herzlichen Glückwunsch!
