Nice flip hand. I dont know if Ephraums did that good read as you say in the text. That play would be kill or die. He could be confident that his oponent wouldnt have big hearts, but we are talking about one single heart, it could even be the 3h that would be enough to send is straight straight away. Lets admit he was a bit lucky.

WTF?! Main Event hasn't been played yet (starts on the 24th)!!!! Matt Ephraums won the opening event (Event 1) - not the Main Event. Fix the article!
btw, Tony Hachem had to settle for 11th place...
------------ $1100 PLO (Event 4) is being played right now... some well known players are in it - including Joe Hachem, Emad Tahtouh, Annet Obrestad, Bill Argyros, Mel Judah,Grant Levy, Graeme Putt and others
