Although Chance Kornuth was the big chip leader when the final table resumed yesterday, it was Kevin Schulz with the second largest stack who dominated play almost entirely until heads-up play. The 28-year-old American currently living in Playa del Carmen, Mexico, had a 4-1 lead over Diego Ventura, from Peru, when the final battle began.

An excellent performance from Kevin Schulz.I had thought this would be won by Kornuth but a great result from a player who had only had one previous cash for $2500 so to go up to $1.5million is brilliant.

The first major of 2015 is in the bag with American Kevin Schulz taking top honours. The extreme sports fan beat Diego Ventura heads-up for the $1,491,580 first prize. After the win he likened the feeling to his passion of skydiving: "If you haven't skydived, you've got to get out there and try it. It's pretty awesome. But so far, this is maybe one of the most intense things I've done in my life."
K3o versus T4s is some serious game I have to tell ya, even in a heads up. I mean really (???) you would risk your chips playing out any of these hands? The suited one I can understand, but... Anyway why bother, congrats to both even though they probably couldn't care less about my opinion. BTW Sorin congrats copypasting everything from p.strat nice to know you can use both Ctrl C and Ctrl V.
