WCOOP Day 13: Three New Champions Crowned
Day 13 of the 2009 World Championship of Online Poker offered tournaments in three games that produced three new WCOOP champions. Darryll ��df1986�� Fish captured the night��s biggest event and $160,525.11 in the no-limit hold��em event. ��KRUTHE�� took down the pot-limit Omaha with rebuys, and ��ShawnZJones�� captured the stud hi-low bracelet.
The Event 33 final table featured several big online names including Jordan ��scarface_79�� Smith, Jeremiah ��Believer82�� Vinsant, Bryn Kenney, and eventual winner Darryll ��df1986�� Fish.
The key hand came after a deal was made during three-handed play. Vinsant raised on the button and was called by ��nicelife�� in the small blind and Fish out of the big blind. The flop fell 3?K?8? and it was checked to Vinsant who made a continuation bet. After ��nicelife�� folded, Fish put in the check-raise. Vinsant then three-bet all-in and Fish called, tabling second pair with 8?6?. His read was correct as Vinsant turned up A?10? for ace-high. The turn and river did not save Vinsant, propelling Fish to the chip lead and eventually the WCOOP title.
