Beim 43. Turnier der WSOP, einem NL Hold’em Turnier nur für Senioren, setzte sich soeben Michael Davis als Gewinner durch. Er ließ ein riesiges Teilnehmerfeld von 2.707 Senioren hinter sich und gewann nicht weniger als 437.558 Dollar. Zweiter wurde Scott Buller mit 268.507 Dollar Preisgeld.
Über weite Strecken sah es für Michael Davis gar nicht gut aus. Als Small-Stack kämpfte er sich durch den Tag, konnte aber dann in den entscheidenden Momenten seinen Stack vergrößern. Erst 10 Minuten vor Ende des Heads-Up Matches erlangte er den entscheidenden Chiplead, als er sich mit Pocket-Aces gegen Scott Buller verdoppelte.
In der finalen Hand eröffnete Buller mit einem Raise auf 175.000 und Davis machte einen Re-raise und legte nochmal 600.000 drauf. Buller ging all-in und Davis callte. Davis hatte A 9 , Buller A J . Der Flop kam 5 4 3 und es hätte die Straße kommen können und der Pot wäre geteilt worden. Entsprechend der Wahrscheinlichkeit war dies aber nicht der Fall und Turn und River brachten 9 und 4 . Davis hatte gewonnen.
Wie unter gesitteten Senioren üblich, gab man sich die Hand und gratulierte sich gegenseitig. Davis Tochter kam zu ihrem Daddy gerannt und rief “So sick, you’re so sick!”.
