Der Brite John Gale gewann diese Nacht das $1.000-Turbo-NLH-Turnier bei der WSOP, sammelte sein zweites Karriere-Bracelet und fast 300.000 Dollar Siegprämie ein.
Eckdaten Event #18: $1.000 Turbo-NLH
Mitspieler: 1.791
Buy-In: $900 + $100
Preispool: $1.611.900
Sieger: John Gale ($298.290)
Der zweite (und auch schon letzte) Tag des Turbo-Turniers begann mit 29 Spielern und eines der bekannteren Gesichter war sicherlich Adam Bilzerian, Bruder von Dan Bilzerian.
Dieser schaffte es immerhin bis auf Platz 12 und damit kurz vor den Final-Table. Dann war allerdings Schluss und er schied aus, als er mit Ass-Neun all-in war, von Sean Rice mit König-Dame gecallt wurde und dieser sich bis zum River einen Flush bastelte.
Am Final-Table wurden in etwas über 6 Stunden 119 Hände gespielt und am Ende konnte sich John Gale aus Großbritannien durchsetzen. Er konnte sich im Laufe des Finales eine enorme Führung erspielen und begann das Heads-Up gegen Gary Luther aus den USA mit einer 8-Millionen zu 900-Tausend-Führung.
Entsprechend fix war das Heads-Up auch entschieden. Nach 15 Händen gab es das finale All-In: John Gale hatte 2♣ 2♥ , Gary Luther A♣ 3♠ . Das Board brachte Luther keine Hilfe und damit stand John Gale als Sieger fest.
Für den Londoner ist dies das zweite Bracelet seiner Karriere, bereits 2006 konnte er ein Pot-Limit-Turnier gewinnen. Gale konnte die letzten drei Jahre aufgrund eines Hirntumors kein einziges WSOP-Turnier spielen. Gegenüber Pokernews erklärte er, sein Arzt hätte ihm auch dieses Jahr verboten zu fliegen. Allerdings meinte Gale, er habe einen Kompromiss gefunden: Er flog nicht selbst, sondern in einem Flugzeug. Herzlichen Glückwunsch zum Bracelet!
