Last hand: Ringe:AsJs/Jc6c6hJd/7s Vitch:Qc6h/AhJh8s2s/9d With almost half his stack already in for the ante, Vitch commits his final chips blind. Ringe calls with a pair of jacks, and he has a nice head start on Vitch's ace high. Neither player improves their hands until sixth street, where Ringe picks up three jacks, and Vitch picks up a low draw. Vitch needs to complete that low to survive, but he can't do it, as the 9d comes instead. Vitch will have to settle for the $111,860 second place prize, while London native Gerald Ringe wins his first WSOP gold bracelet, and $180,943 with it!

I was surprised to see that there were 34 women players in this event,the female numbers have been very low this year so to see that many in this type of game is strange. Good to see the UK managing to win bracelets.
