Raminder Singh

Hollywood all-time wins leader Raminder Singh came up a little short on his quest to extend his record to 13 major titles (and his first in a non-hold’em game).

Singh lost most of his stack when he turned a straight on the KsTh4c9d4d board with QdQhJhTd but lost to the river boat of Mike Morton with AdKdKcJc. He finished sixth place but booked another impressive result.

Ahsan Rehman
