Mike Hahn (Indianapolis, IN)
$15,989
Congratulations to Mike Hahn who outlasted Sameer Batra in a long heads-up session with mighty swings. A fitting heads-up since Hahn and Batra both were 1 and 2 in chips pretty much since dinner.
Very quickly into heads-up action, Mike had Sameer dead to 50,000 chips equaling only two big blinds. Somehow Sameer battled all the way back and actually outchipped Hahn by 50,000.
"That happens in poker...He won a bunch of flips and was right back in it" explained Mike.
Impressively Mike kept his composure and caught some cards. In the end, he outlasted Batra and won the tournament with A-Q vs. K-8 on a dry board.
The knock-out that brought most joy to Mike came at the final table when he felted "Lucky" Lee Kirsch in 5th Place. Mike and Lee are in a friendly war for the 2013BSPO Leaderboard and a seat to the September Championship.
So it's bookend trophies for Mike Hahn who also won Event 3 during this series. The kid is running good. Today the poker pro takes home $15,989 for his 15 hours of concentration.
Mike will check the leaderboard tomorrow to determine if he needs to play more Events to secure the top spot.
