The Champion --

 

·        The 2009 World Series of Poker $2,500 buy-in Mixed Hold’em (Limit/No-Limit) champion is Bahador “Baha” Ahmadi, from Burnaby, BC (Canada).

 

·        Bahador Ahmadi is also known as Jeff Ahmadi.  He is called “Jeff” by all those who know him.

 

·        Ahmadi is a 24-year-old semi-pro poker player.  He has attended college and worked various odd jobs.  But he now spends much of his time playing poker.

 

·        Ahmadi was born in Iran.  He immigrated to Canada with his family at the age of 4.  Ahmadi has lived in Calgary and Vancouver.  He settled down and now lives in Burnaby, BC – which is near Vancouver.

 

·        Ahmadi attended College of the Holy Cross, near Boston.  He attended college on a football scholarship.   

 

·        Ahmadi decided to transfer to a college closer to home and attended the University of British Columbia, in Canada.  He did not complete his degree but hopes to return to school sometime and finish his education.

 

·        Ahamdi has worked various jobs when he’s not playing poker or attending school.  His worked a few summers in construction as a roofer.

 

·        Ahmadi attended his first WSOP in 2006.  He has not been back to the WSOP since then until this year, saying that he did not want to spend several weeks during the summertime in Las Vegas. 

 

·        Ahmadi has cashed in two events this year.

 

·        Ahmadi collected $278,804 for first place.  He was also awarded his first WSOP gold bracelet.

 

·        According to official records, Ahmadi now has 1 win, 2 final table appearances, and 2 in-the-money finishes at the WSOP.  His career WSOP earnings now total $418,738.

 

·        During this year’s WSOP, Ahmadi is sharing a house in Las Vegas on a temporary basis with several other serious poker players.  He stated proudly that he was the first gold bracelet winner in his “house.”  He added that the group now has three final table appearances, a tenth-place finish, and several cashes.

Winner Quotes (Bahador “Baha” Ahmadi) --

 

·        On his expectations coming into this year’s WSOP:  “I planned on playing in every $2,500 event, every $1,500 event, and the Main Event.  I expected to do well.  I expected to cash.  Once I final tabled (Event 13), I thought I would do pretty well.”

 

·        On why he skipped playing a few years at the WSOP:  “It’s a grind.  Staying here in Las Vegas for many weeks is a grind.” 

 

·        On playing mixed games, both Limit and No-Limit Hold’em:  “If you are good at both games, you have an edge.  In an event like this, you find a lot of No-Limit players who have not played much Limit.  So, if you have any edge in Limit, you can do well.  I have a strong background in Limit.  I found that I was able to really make (major gains) when we were playing Limit.  I sat back in the No-Limit and just picked my spots.”

 

·        On being surrounded by poker players sharing a summer rental during the 2009 WSOP:  “We thought someone from the house would break through and win a gold bracelet.  I am just happy it was me.”

Iranian-Born Poker Players at the WSOP --

 

·        Ahmadi, who was born in Iran, is actually a Canadian citizen.  However, he wishes to have the Iranian national anthem played at his gold bracelet ceremony held on the following day.  Accordingly, his victory will be credited to the nation of Iran.  In a post-tournament interview, Ahamdi wanted to point out that he is proud of his heritage and supports change in his native country.  He believes that playing the Iranian anthem at the WSOP will enable many poker players and the public to better understand the pro-Western attitudes held by many Iranians, both who live within Iran and abroad.

 

·        Many Iranian-born poker players have enjoyed success at the WSOP.  The most notable gold bracelet winners (originally) from Iran are:

 

Farzad Bonyadi – three gold bracelet wins

Mansour Matloubi – 1990 WSOP Main Event winner

Hamid Dastmalchi – 1992 WSOP Main Event winner and three gold bracelets

Amir Vahedi – gold bracelet winner

Farzad Rouhani – gold bracelet winner

Antonio Esfandiari – gold bracelet winner

The Final Table --

 

·        The final table included two former WSOP gold bracelet winners – Barry Greenstein (3 wins) and Hasan Habib (1 win).

 

·        The runner up was John “Sketchy” McGuinness, Toms River, NJ.  He is a former process server who is now self-employed.  This was his first time to cash in a WSOP event.  Second place paid $172,227.

 

·        The third-place finisher was Ylon Schwartz, from Austin, TX.  He finished fourth in last year’s WSOP Main Event, worth more than $3.7 million.  Schwartz’ third place finish in this tournament is the highest so far of any (2008) November Nine player.

 

·        The fourth-place finisher was Karlo “The Wizard” Lopez, from San Juan, Puerto Rico.  This is believed to be the highest finish ever achieved at the WSOP by a player from Puerto Rico.  He has cashed in two of the last four WSOP Main Events – finishing 33rd in 2005 and 201st in 2007.

 

·        The fifth-place finisher was three-time gold bracelet winner Barry Greenstein, from Rancho Palos Verdes, CA.  Although he has yet to win this year, Greenstein is enjoying a successful WSOP, with six cashes and two final table appearances, thus far.

 

·        The sixth-place finisher was Matthew Woodward, from Waterboro, ME.  He was a swimmer in college at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst who now plays poker professionally.  This was Woodward’s ninth time to cash and marked his highest finish ever at the WSOP.  

 

·        The seventh-place finisher was Randy Haddox, from Houston, TX.  This was his seventh time to cash and marked his highest finish ever at the WSOP.

 

·        The eighth-place finisher was Hasan Habib, from Downey, CA.  He won his gold bracelet playing Seven-Card Stud High-Low Split in 2004.  This marked Habib’s 18th cash at the WSOP.  He has accumulated nearly $900,000 in WSOP winnings.  Years ago before coming to the U.S. in his native Pakistan, Habib was a tennis champion.

 

·        The ninth-place finisher was Zak Humphrey, from Bellingham, WA.  He is primarily a cash-game player.

Odds and Ends --

 

·        This was only the third year that the WSOP has offered a Mixed Hold’em tournament.  Two such events were on the schedule in 2007 and 2008, which means this was only the fifth Mixed Hold’em tournament ever held at the WSOP.

 

·        Mixed Hold'em means that two games are played in rotation – Limit Hold'em and No-Limit Hold'em.  The games alternate as each game is played for 30 minutes per (one-hour) level.

[tikay]

The Event --

 

·        The $2,500 buy-in Mixed Hold’em championship attracted 527 entries.  The total prize pool amounted to $1,212,100.  The top 54 finishers collected prize money.

 

·        The tournament was played over three consecutive days.

 

·        Karlo “The Wizard” Lopez came to the final table on Day Three with the chip lead.  He ended up busting out in fourth place.

 

·        The eventual winner Jeff Ahmadi came to the final table on Day Three ranked second in chips.   

 

·        The heads-up match between Jeff Ahmadi and runner up John McGuinness lasted exactly one hand.  Ahmadi moved all-in post-flop with a flush draw and got called by McGuinness holding pocket tens.  A diamond on the turn gave Ahmadi his flush and left McGuinness drawing dead.  Ahamdi became the latest WWSOP champion.

 

·        The final table lasted about 6 hours – which was relatively quick by 2009 standards.  Most final tables this year have been running 9-10 hours.

 

·        The tournament officially began on Wednesday, June 24th, at noon.  The tournament officially ended on Friday, June 26th, at 9:00 pm.
