Sam Trickett Victorious in Event #2, Taking Home $435,000

After half a level of cagey back and forth pots with Ivan Leow, Sam Trickett with one fell outdraw (see below) has scooped the title and $435,000 first prize. A late Day 1 registrant in this 58-runner $25,000 No Limit Hold’em event, Trickett navigated his way through the nine-handed final table with aplomb, his prize nearly half a million dollars to add to his already $21.3 million career earnings.
A recap of the final day’s action and winner’s photograph to follow.
