Mr. Final Table Arrives at the WCOOP Event #12
The World Championship of online poker is continuing to move towards its Main Event, but first a little limit action. Well, relatively little, as the big brother H.O.R.S.E. tourney Event #12's $215 entry fee affair that recently concluded will be played on September 29th with a eye-opening $5,200 entry fee and $500,000 guarantee (that guarantee is sure to be broken anyway...).

Hold Em', Omaha Eight-or-Better, Razz, Stud Hi, and Stud Eight-or-Better make the lineup, and from the final table report by PokerStarsBlog.com, Razz got the better of most of the final table participants.

As a part of Team PokerStars, Lee Nelson is no stranger to final tables and arrived at this one 6th in chips but couldn't improve his final placing due to this report from the PokerStarsBlog:

Team PokerStars' Lee Nelson must have seen the coldest run of cards in all of WCOOP. Over the next hour, he barely played a hand, and those he did, he couldn't show down. By the time the Razz round came up, he barely had any chips and ended up getting all-in with barely a chance at winning. That chance never presented itself and Nelson exited in sixth place, earning $13,112.


As the heads-up battle concluded, a Dutch and Norwegian settled the score during bacon and eggs time in the U.S. as jaliks' chip stack and straight were larger then Hikkespett's two pair during the Stud Hi round. Jaliks from the Netherlands walked away with Event #12's bracelet and $72K richer.

The final table payouts shown below from PokerStarsBlog:
