Event 8 Champion Chris Labrie

Long Nguyen completed the small blind to 60,000, and Chris Labrie checked his option in the big blind.

The flop came Qs9s2c, Labrie checked, Nguyen bet 60,000, and Labrie called.

The turn card was the 6c, Labrie bet 120,000, and Nguyen called.

The river card was the 3s, Labrie bet 120,000, and Nguyen thought for a bit before he folded, leaving himself only about 105,000. Labrie took the pot.

Chris Labrie  –  1,445,000  (12 BB)
Long Nguyen  –  105,000  (1 BB)

After several hands and a split pot or two, Nguyen had dropped down to 45,000, and got it all in from the big blind against Labrie.

Chris Labrie:  10h8h4s2c
Long Nguyen:  8d6h5c4d

The board came AsJc7c10dJh, and with no possible lows, Labrie won the pot with a pair of tens to win the title, the trophy, and $11,590.

Long Nguyen finished as the runner-up, earning $6,820.

The key hand for Labrie was back when there were six players remaining (less than an hour ago) for 36% of all the chips in play in a big pot against Sandy Sanchez. Click here to check out the details of that hand.
