Event 8 Champion - Liberta

$350 + $50 Deep Stack NLH (Re-Entry)

Joey Liberta (Berlin, NJ)
$49,029

The final hand is a classic race situation that Liberta wins over Mitchell Mantin (Las Vegas, NV) to clinch the title, the trophy and the Blue Shark Optics sunglasses.

Blinds: 120k/240k/30k ante

Liberta: 2♠ 2
Mantin A K ♣

Flop: 5♠ A♠ 6♠ (Mantin leads with a pair of aces, Liberta picks up flush draw)

Turn: 5♣

River: 2♣ (set of 2s for Liberta)

And with a lot of outs, Liberta hits the set to take the title.
