Many congratulations to Jeffrey Smith for winning his first bracelet and taking down a first prize of $323,125. He bested a field of over 1900 players so he thoroughly deserves his winnings
Cheers yeah grats to him for beating a huge field and a bit sad about Nguyen not winning, but you know , pros cannot win all hands, anyway on his name it is so generic that we can think that it might be a fake lol. Anyway congratulations to him. Hope the tournaments get more winners, so far I heard about a lot of pro players and not much new players coming in!
Congratulations to the winner, that was a pretty fierce heads up battle if you ask me I guess that on the final hand even if he did not had luck and take the hand down, he could not be disappointed since he had the better hand preflop.
