The 3rd event of the WSOPE came down to a gruelling headsup battle between Jani Vilmunen and Howard Lederer. Both players fought hard through the early rounds and at one point it looked like it would be an all Finnish finish. Jani Vilmunen walked away with £204,048.
Vilmunen won the WCOOP Omaha event on Stars recently, so this is a spectacular double
