Winner's Reaction
"I feel great. It's always been on my bucket list. Hopefully, I'll win a bracelet in an open event, too, but man, this is a dream come true," replied an elated Jazayeri when asked how he was feeling.
Jazayeri was then asked how he felt being the short stack throughout most of the day and if he preferred deep-stacked poker.
"No, I hate playing short stack, but it's the easiest way to play. You either shove or you fold, and I was very lucky with a couple of hands, like when I had ace-five against kings. Super, super lucky. Then I won a race with ace-queen against jacks, so it all worked out. Luck is a part of this game."
