Norman McKeldin Eliminated in 2nd Place ($126,723)
On the first hand of heads up play Norman McKeldin held the button.
We're unsure of the prelfop action but the flop came . Ryan Stevenson checked over to McKeldin. McKeldin quickly announced that he was all in for 4.545 million.
"Why so much?" asked Stevenson.
He leaned back in his chair. "Alright, I call."
Stevenson showed and was ahead with a pair of tens again McKeldin's for two overs and a flush draw.
"Hold one time!" yelled Stevenson.
It seemed that he would not hold, as the fell on the turn giving McKeldin a pair of kings and the lead. Stevenson would need to re-suck on the river and he did exactly that as the drilled the felt, securing his victory of the 2013 WSOPC Harrah's Tunica Main Event.
McKeldin, on the other hand, will take home $126,723 for his runner-up finish.
