For the sake of posterity:

Michael Graves Wins the $1,000 No-Limit Hold-Em with Rebuys

Graves raised with {6-Hearts}{5-Spades} and Tran called with {9-Hearts}{8-Spades}. The {4-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} flop gave Graves a pair and an open-ended straight draw and Tran a gutshot draw along with his overcards. Graves bet 375,000, and as soon as Tran announced he was all-in Graves made the call.

The {K-Diamonds} on the turn and {10-Diamonds} on the turn missed Tran's hand and Michael Graves, who came to the table with the chip lead and laid low early on before making his move, won the tournament, the World Series of Poker bracelet, and $742,121. Theo Tran, who played a creative and aggressive game and made some remarkable plays down the stretch, takes home $387,193 as our runner-up.


$742K. Very nice score!

Soooo sick. This is the friggin' kid that got me into online poker and taught me how to grind out $5 sit-n-gos 4 years ago. Now he has a bracelet! I guess that makes my poker education more legitamite.

Congrats Mike... very well deserved!

The best was when they get heads up and Theo asks Mike about a deal. Mike turns around to Raptor who says "play it out, you got this." The rest is history.

Huge congrats , Michael. I was soo happy to see u take it down heads up that i totally forgot about the a8>a9 [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
Unlike some others you were nothing but class at the table and it was very satisfying to see a genuinely good guy have such a nice score. It was good to meet and play with you and Shawn Hattem both, really nice guys and very strong players, obv. Congrats again and gl in the future.

Shawn
