"Official" WPT Championship Final Table Thread

I'm just surprised they had enough chips to get in 3 raises.

From all the updates it looks like Maxfield's been doing everything right...

It's got to be heartbreaking to be one card away from the championship and have it taken from you.

Now Maxfield knows what that feels like.

Hand 187: Tuan Le raises it to $2 million, and Maxfield calls. The flop comes 6-5-3 with two hearts. Maxfield checks, Tuan Le pushes all in, and Maxfield calls. Maxfield shows 6-5 suited for two pair, and Tuan Le has 9-8 for a gut-shot straight draw. Tuan Le needs a seven, but he sees a 2 fall on the turn. He now needs a 7 or a 4 to stay alive, and the river card is a ... 7.

Place Poker Player Chip Count
1 Tuan Le $ 12,000,000
2 Paul Maxfield $ 10,000,000

Unbelievably, the tournament continues with another come-from-behind river card. Tuan Le was a huge underdog in this hand, but manages to double up and get right back into the game.
