Event 3: 2nd Place - Eftekhar Jahromi

$500 + $60 Big Stack NLH (Re-Entry)  

Payam Eftekhar Jahromi (Pittsburgh, PA)
$21,367

It took a bad beat, but it is finally over.

Payam Eftekhar was all-in holding pocket Kings.

Mike Hahn had pocket 5s.

The board ran out 7 4 3 2 5 and Mike took the pot with a set.

Payam will take home $21,367 for second place.  No bad considering he was nearly busted in level 5 (blinds 150/300/25 ante).  He was down to only 2 big blinds and tripled up twice to get back into the game.  He parlayed those chips all the way to heads-up.

Payam is a student in Pittsburgh and has to leave on Monday, so he's not sure if he'll be able to play again during this series.
