An Epic Battle Comes to an End

In what was easily the day's longest heads-up battle, it took Paul Keesey nearly four hours of heads-up play to earn his way to Day 2.

Keesey was on the second table to reach heads up today and the chip lead bounced back and forth many times before Keesey finally claimed the win just after our last break.
