Event #14 Is In the Books!

Stud World Champion

158 players started this $10,000 Seven-Card Stud World Championship. One of the strongest stud fields of all time assembled to try and take down the coveted world title. Eight players, including two multi bracelet winners, started this final table, but it was an unknown player, Eric Brooks, who took the title.

This is Brooks' first professional cash in a major tournament. Brooks will donate his entire winnings to the Decision Education Foundation, whose mission it is to teach the science of decision making to youth in grades K through 12.

At the beginning of this final table, Brooks stated that he was hoping to get lucky. Brooks indeed did get lucky, but he also showed tremendous skill outlasting 157 other opponents and taking home $415,856 and the gold bracelet.

Congratulations to Eric Brooks, the 2008 Seven-Card Stud World Champion.
