Posted by Junelli 11:55 AM Doyle Brunson wins Event #29 ($5,000 Short-Handed No-Limit Hold'em), earning $367,800 and his tenth World Series of Poker bracelet. Brunson is now tied for the career record with Johnny Chan, who won his tenth just four days ago. Minh Ly finishes in second place, earning $203,715.
It's good to know that even the legends have to suck out every now and then:
Hand 157 - Minh Ly has the button, he limps, Brunson moves all in, and Ly immediately calls. Brunson shows 10c-3d, and Ly has Ks-Qd. The flop comes 9s-8d-3h, and Brunson takes the lead with a pair, and Ly needs a queen, a king, or something runner-runner to stay alive. The turn card is the 4h, and Ly is down to six outs. The river card is the 5c, and Minh Ly is eliminated in second place, earning $203,715.
