Jesper Hougaard Wins Event #56 (£1,500 No-Limit Hold'em), Fuad Serhan Eliminated in 2nd Place (£ 89,175)

Fuad Serhan - 2nd Place
Fuad Serhan - 2nd Place
Hand #162 -

Fuad Serhan has the button. He raises to 120,000, Jesper Hougaard moves all in and Serhan calls.

Serhan: {A-Clubs} {K-Clubs}

Hougaard: {A-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds}

Though he's dominated to start off, the flop is utterly perfect for Hougaard, coming down {10-Diamonds} {6-Diamonds} {5-Diamonds}, making him the nut flush and leaving Serhan drawing dead. As almost an afterthought, the {7-Hearts} and {9-Hearts} land on the turn and river respectively... and Jesper Hougaard is our champion, taking home his second WSOP bracelet of 2008 and £144,218. He becomes the first person to win one bracelet in Las Vegas and one in London during the same WSOP.

Fuad Serhan earns £89,175 for his runner-up finish.
