After a surprisingly long final table that included a three-hour stretch with five players, chipleader Gabriel Ramos won the Six-Max Pot Limit Omaha trophy in a deal made shortly after heads-up play began.

This is the third Seminole Hard Rock Hollywood trophy for Ramos in the past year, and all three are for Omaha events. This is also the fifth cash of the series for Ramos, who previously finished 10th in Event 10 ($360 Pot Limit Omaha), 18th in Event 8 ($150 Big Stack NLH), 10th in Event 4 ($360 PLO 8), and fourth in Event 2 ($360 Omaha 8).

Ramos was playing two events simultaneously for a while this evening, playing in this event with a stack at the final table of Event 12, and bouncing back-and-forth between them. Unfortunately for Ramos, he fell short of the money in Event 12 (only the final five cashed), but he more than redeemed himself by winning this event seven or eight hours later.
