Event 1: 12th Place – Willie Wiggins ($2,863)

$350 Deep Stack No Limit Hold’em (Re-Entry)
Blinds: 40k/80k/10k ante

Steven McKoy opened for 175,000 and a short-stacked Willie Wiggins moved all in for approximately 100,000 more. McKoy made the call with Ac8s and was ahead of Wiggins and his 9c6d.

The flop came AdTh3s moving McKoy further ahead. The 8d on the turn gave Wiggins a small glimmer of hope as a seven would give him a straight but the river was the 9d and Wiggins was eliminated in 12th place for $2,863.

$350 Deep Stack No Limit Hold’em (Re-Entry)
Blinds: 40k/80k/10k ante

It was folded to Steven Bennett in the small blind who moved all in for just slightly more than 10 big blinds. Stewart Newman was in the big blind and made the call with 4x4x and was racing against Bennett’s 9x8x. Newman would win the race when the board ran out 7x3x2xJx4x to send Bennett home in 13th place.
