The Funk for Pab and Sam Trickett thread

UL on 2nd but VWP all the same.  Enjoy the rest of the night with the lads!

Jason DeWitt moved all in from the button in his first real preflop attack on the stack of his opponent. Sam Trickett looked down at his hole cards and made a quick call!

DeWitt: {8-Hearts}{10-Spades}
Trickett: {A-Spades}{7-Diamonds}

DeWitt got caught but had live cards for a shot at the title.

The flop fell {8-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{5-Clubs} and DeWitt spiked a pair to take the lead as Trickett flopped a straight draw for the sweat. The turn {6-Clubs} changed nothing and Trickett was left needing an ace, nine or four to stay alive. It wasn't to be as the {5-Hearts} landed on the river and Jason DeWitt is our champion!

A bitterly disappointed Sam Trickett is consoled by his friends and family on the rail, but he'll wake up tomorrow morning with 505,725 reasons to smile.




Well played Sam, and Pab, great effort

Huge congratulations are extended to Jason DeWitt who has emerged victorious in one of the toughest big-field events we've seen at the WSOP for quite some time. Just go back and take a look at our Day One coverage to gauge just how strong the field was for this event. Not only that, but they played an extremely aggressive, fearless brand of poker for the entire three day stretch.

It's a credit to young Jason DeWitt that he not only withstood everything that was thrown at him, but he thrived on it. He was the chip leader entering today's play and when it was all said and done, he was the last man standing.

DeWitt certainly had some cards, and as he said to Sam Trickett following their contest, "You ran really bad...I had it every time!" However he also had a few things go against him, with a couple of lost races against short stacks during the evening, and was able to maintain his composure and recover.

At times the final table was thrilling with excitement, but in the end it was the disciplined, composed approach of DeWitt that emerged triumphant with shiny new gold bracelet and $818,959 in prize money.
