Bichon:
After six days of poker, it came down to one final flip. Bichon took a commanding lead by flopping a set,
. He needed only to dodge a queen on the turn and river to secure the championship. The 
turn didn't really help Keidar, and he was eliminated by the 
river.When the river card fell, Bichon let out a primal scream of "Yeaaaaaaaah!" and then sank to his knees, his arms in the air, as if he had just won the French Open. It was the exclamation point on an excellent week of poker.
