Nick Becker

Level 24 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Back in February, the RunGood Poker Series' triumphant return to Jamul Casino saw a grand total of 407 entrants. That beat the set prize pool guarantee and left $211,640 to be split between 52 players. After ten hours of play on the final day of the Mission RunGood San Diego $600 Main Event, there was just one player standing alone at the end.

It was just four short months prior that Kenneth Hirose claimed a career-best score at the WSOP Circuit Commerce. He finished in second place in the Mini-Main event for $53,258. While a significant sum of money, his first big heads-up match had gone awry. Now, he can happily report a heads-up match that went his way.
