Event 17: Willie Wiggins Wins

$120 + $30 No Limit Hold’em Double Stack Turbo

In one of the most amazing hands ever seen at The Poker Room at Seminole Hard Rock, all six players went all in pre-flop and it would be chip leader Willie Wiggins who would win the pot and the tournament when he would flop quad 7’s with 7-2 off suit. “I just felt lucky,” said Wiggins when asked why he made the call.

OK, that’s not really what happened but it sounds more exciting than saying the six remaining players made a chip count chop which gave Wiggins the win. Our final six and their payouts were as follows:
