Theo Jorgensen Wins The 2010 WPT Grand Prix de Paris! (€633,902)
Welcome to a Theo-cracy!
Theo Jorgensen came into today as the big stack and was the favorite to take the title, but this meant a lot of pressure and after some clashes with Per Linde and Antoine Amourette, it looked as though he might not make it to the endgame. However a crucial pot was sent his way when he doubled through Amourette with Kings against Sevens and from then on it always looked as though Jorgensen would emerge from the tournament victorious. While the short stacks held on for dear life, Jorgensen continued to pound on the medium stacks and by the time we got four handed, it became simply a matter of 'when' and not 'if'.
It was a short heads-up battle but in truth, the work had been done beforehand.
Finally, it was fitting that the trophy given to Jorgensen was a globe. The man who has just won the world was given the world as a result.
Congratulations then to Theo Jorgensen, who now has both a WSOPE bracelet and a WPT title to his name, but also to all our finalists from today.
From the Pokernews Live Reporting Team, it's over and out!
