Yesterday, Phil Hellmuth was once again denied the 12th WSOP gold bracelet. This time it was Eric Rodawig who defeated Hellmuth heads-up on the $10k Seven Card Stud Hi-Low Split-8 or Better Championship final table.
For the win, Rodawig received his first WSOP bracelet and also the biggest cash in his poker career - $442,183. It was an extremely tough final table for Rodawig. Ali Eslami, David Benyamine & Ted Forrest - just to mention 3 other pros he had to defeat before winning the 45-minute long heads-up match against Hellmuth. Quite impressive, hah?
