A Flashback to Last Year's Final Table

Level 9 : 400/800, 100 ante

Here's a look at how things ended in this very event last year as written about in our recap of the tournament:

The final hand occurred when Kyle Cartwright raised to 110,000 on the button and Asheesh Boyapati moved all-in for around 1.6 million. Cartwright called and was in great shape.

Boyapati: {8-Hearts}{5-Clubs}
Cartwright: {K-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}

The board ran out {2-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{3-Spades} and Boyapati was eliminated as runner-up. Cartwright became the World Series of Poker Circuit Harrah’s St. Louis Main Event Champion, was awarded his third gold ring, and claimed the $142,290 first-place prize. In addition, given that Cartwright had previously qualified for the National Championship, the spot usually awarded to a Main Event winner will instead be applied to the National Leaderboard, meaning another point earner will be awarded a spot, courtesy of Cartwright.
