The winner
of the $2,000 buy-in No-Limit Hold'em championship was Will Durkee. He is a
24-year-old graduate student at Northwestern University in Chicago. Durkee is
originally from Pittsburgh, PA. Durkee received his undergraduate degree from
the University of Virginia. He graduated in 2005. While in college, Durkee
excelled as both a student and an athlete. He was "Honorable Mention
All-American" in NCAA Division I wrestling as well as an "Academic
All-American." He holds a degree in economics. This was his fourth time to cash
at the World Series of Poker presented by Milwaukee's Best Light. He won over
half-a-million dollars. First place paid $566,916. Phil Hellmuth, Jr. finished
in 104th place in this event. That means he added to his margin as the all-time
"Number of Lifetime WSOP Cashes" leader - now with 58. Men "the Master" Nguyen
is second - currently with 54. Todd Terry finished in third-place. He also won
a WSOP Circuit event at Harrah's Atlantic City in 2006. |
