In this nosebleed heads-up battle, the largest pot comes a only slightly shy of $100k with Lars taking home the chips. At the offset of this hand, Lars is sitting considerably short with a stack of just under 41bb; Ivey is sitting with his regular deep stack of over 400bb.

It took just five hours for the Team PokerStars Pro to eliminate all five players at the final table and add a WPT title to his already-impressive poker resume that includes an EPT title from the 2008 PokerStars Caribbean Adventure. Despite entering the final table as the chip leader and quickly knocking off William Mietz, Adam “Roothlus” Levy and Nenad Medic, Grospellier actually got himself into trouble three-handed against Oddie Dardon and Nam Le. Dardon briefly took the chip lead but after ElkY managed to get a bit lucky when his #Tc#2c outflopped Dardon’s #As#Jc
