When the toughest field of the WSOP assembles to play the annual $50,000 H.O.R.S.E. World Championship, it takes a truly talented player to rise to the top. This year, that man is David Bach. Over the course of five very long days, Bach picked his way through a room full of 95 sharks with remarkable precision and diligence. He was up and down and back up again at the epic final table, and with the sun already high in the sky, he managed to outrun John Hanson to claim the prestigious bracelet, the Chip Reese Memorial Trophy, and more than $1.25 million just before lunch time on the sixth day. Congratulations to David Bach, the deserving World Champion of H.O.R.S.E.!
