It always seems that Shaun Deeb could win a tournament at any time, and here he has brought one in. So far as I'm aware, he has got to this stage of the Series without getting into a Twitter war with anyone, which is another achievement for him. Shaun is never one to underestimate his own ability, and he was true-to-form by informing us afterwards that he is targeting Hellmuth's record, and gives himself a couple of decades to do it. The way he turns up a size larger every year suggests that he also has a good chance of challenging Raymer's record in that timescale. Maybe he'll do both, so long as he retains his appetite for the game.

Nick Julia, a web developer and IT VP from Arizona, held a massive lead going into the final day, with more than twice as many chips as the second-placed player. It was still a tough assignment with eight bracelet-holders among his sixteen opponents. Seven of them would fall before the final table, with two of them, Kenny Hsiung and Robert Mizrachi, going out on the same hand, but Mizrachi was assigned sixth place and a lot more points. Only three of the players eliminated from fifteenth to sixth place couldn't have put a bracelet on the table. One of them, tenth placed pro Matt Vengrin, has expressed his intention of winning 10 WSOP bracelets in his career and is currently just 10 short of completing his ambition.
