Robert Mitchell:
"Hooold!" Mitchell's rail yelled. He ran over to them and high-fived them in advance. The flop came down to keep him way ahead, and after the turn Mitchell only needed to fade the treys to win his first-ever WSOP bracelet.
The dealer burned and turned the on the river and Mitchell ran over to his ecstatic rail. He high-fived every one of them before one of his friends took him on their shoulders in celebration.
Bognanni's amazing run in Event #37 came to an end in second place, parlaying an $800 investment into a $183,742 score.
