Congratulations to Marco Johnson Winner of the Event #48 $2,500 Limit Hold'em Six Handed ($206,796)!
 
Marco Johnson knows plenty about finishing runner-up at a WSOP event. He has done it three times now, including in this very event last year, as well as a runner-up finish in an event just last week. Well today, Johnson wouldn't be denied, as he took down Event #48 $2,500 Limit Hold'em (Six-Handed) for his first elusive bracelet, and $206,796.

The big story coming into the day was David "Bakes" Baker looking for his fifth final table at this year's WSOP. He came into the day as one of the shorter stacks, and was never able to get anything going, as he busted in 10th place. We also lost Mike Watson along the way to the unofficial final table, after Watson managed to secure at least three double ups.

Congratulations to the ladies, however without seeming to be rude how much longer can this comp be valid. I'm sure its been discussed many times..but in a game which has a perceived level playing field for the sexes i.e. there is no advantage to being physically stronger etc what is the point of a single sex competition?

The top ladies in the world are more than capable of holding their own so why the need for this competition. Ever since the suffragettes woman have been fighting tooth and nail for equality yet with this they cast a self inflicted shadow. As the saying goes..you can't have it both ways.
I'm sure the outcry would be long and loud if a men only comp was scheduled...
Add this to the fact winning this bracelet would never be truly recognised by the fraternity as a true WSOP win.

Who cares. There's a seniors comp- don't see nearly as much fuss
