Cummings Captures Maiden Crown as Kanai Falls Short
Aaron Cummings won the $1,500-entry Limit 2-7 Lowball Triple Draw 6-Max Event #22 for a $95,981 top prize as players such as Yuichi Kanai, Alexander Wilson and Heather Alcorn fell just short of glory. A total of 13 players started the day but after the former chip leader James Williams busted early, it was anyone's bracelet.
At the final table, the lst remaining previous bracelet winner was Danny Wong but his elimination in sixth by the former WSOP DEaler of the Year Alcorn took care of any chances of a repeat win with six remaining players all potential first-timers.
Alexander Wilkinson busted Sean Yu for $30,800 in fifth place before getting fortunate to do the same to Alcorn in fourth for $43,984. Alcorn was desperately unlucky, losing to Wilkinson's three-outer on the river as her bid to become the first female winner this series.
Wilkinson got unlucky himself to bust in third, needing to fade a deuce or seven on the river but unable to do so, cashing for $64,256 in third place. Heads-up, a long slog ensued for supremacy as Cummings eventually won with a perfect eight-six beating Kanai's ten-eight. Cummings turned to his fans on the rail and informed them of the result, shouting: "We got ‘em!"at the top of his voice!
