Brandon Hall Wins 2009 UltimateBet.net Aruba Poker Classic!

Robert Mizrachi - 2nd Place
Robert Mizrachi - 2nd Place
The deal made between our two finalists seemed to speed up heads-up play quite a bit, as we officially have a winner after a quick battle -- 20 year-old Brandon Hall from Littleton, Pennsylvania. Here's how the final hand went down:

In what was a raised pot, Hall checked to Robert Mizrachi after the flop came down {8-Spades}{9-Hearts}{2-Clubs}. Mizrachi then fired a 225,000 bet and Hall came over the top, firing a raise that looked to be about 725,000 total.

Mizrachi quickly moved all in, Hall called, and before we knew it the cards were on their backs:

Hall: {J-Spades}{10-Diamonds}
Mizrachi: {9-Clubs}{6-Clubs}

4th Street delivered the knockout blow to Mizrachi, when the dealer burned and turned the {J-Diamonds}, giving Hall top pair. The river, {Q-Diamonds}, blanked and Brandon Hall was declared the 2009 UltimateBet.net Aruba Poker Classic Champion!
