Clad in his signature fedora and possessing his typically cool demeanor, Lisandro absolutely ran over this final table. Arriving there with a 2-1 chip lead over his closest opponent, Lisandro really never had to look back. At times it seemed like he just couldn't lose a pot, eliminating four of his seven opponents at the final table, and taking most of Kenna James' stack before Michael Craig finished him off.
For runner-up Michael Craig, his finish is also quite a feat. Though this is his fifth cash and third career WSOP final table, Craig is not a professional player. Rather, he is a writer, penning the book "The Professor, The Banker, and the Suicide King" as well as blogging daily for Full Tilt Poker. Clearly he's picked up some serious Razz skills through his friendships with Ted Forrest and Huck Seed, arguably two of the game's greatest players.
Congratulations to Jeff Lisandro on an incredible feat, and for becoming the first player since Phil Ivey in 2002 to win three WSOP bracelets in one year.
