Only different in terms of some minor cash values. Surely winning the APAT event carries more kudos?  ;)

Seriously - hope he takes it down..... I remember him from Bolton - a really nice guy (despite being Scottish of course).  He"s massive at the moment, playing 7m to 2.6m (and the other guy doubled a moment ago with Q2 > A7)

Looks like he"s done ok since Bolton, and has 3 cashes in this WSOP already.

Out second.

The other guy ran really well when it mattered, and twice survived all ins when at risk with 40/60 holding.  That said though, he played really well and never made a mistake headsup.

In the end, it came down to a mahoosive pot where Niall held A4 and 4bet shoved, the other called with 66... and despite a flop that gave Niall a flush draw, a gutshot draw, and the overcard (15 outs), the 66 held....  a couple of hands later, and it was over when Niall"s A2 was no match for A3 (aipf), and a 3 on the flop.
