    Congratulations to Rep Porter, Champion of Event #9 ($372,929)

    After three grueling days of six-handed play, Rep Porter has bested the field of 1,236 runners to take home the title of champion in Event #9, $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em / Six-Handed. Not only does he earn $372,929 for his first-place finish, but he also has been presented with something that every poker player dreams of: a WSOP gold bracelet. Porter started the day third in chips and was able to time his moves effectively to outlast the field. Congratulations Rep.
