Event #12: 1,500 Limit Hold'em

Zac Fellows was only sitting on 75,000 so the chips were always going to go in on this hand and they duly did preflop. Fellows holding    . Shultz holding    . Fellows in good shape as we head to the flop...       It just got more interesting as the turn comes...   One more card to potentially end it...   !! The flush comes to give Jimmy Shultz the winning hand and every chip left in the tournament. He becomes our 12th bracelet winner this year winning a cool $257,105. Congratulations also go to our runner-up, Zac Fellows, who fought to the end and takes home $165,165 for his efforts. To be honest it was never in doubt because Shultz had his lucky penny under his chair. He found it under his chair on Day One and has kept it under his chair throughout, as he thought it was bringing him luck. He wasn't too far wrong! Shultz had announced that he will be donating 25 percent of his winnings to Charlestown Fire Department so a big pat on the back to him for that genorous gesture. Winning photos coming shortly.

Zac Fellows is down to around 600,000 after losing a couple of moderate pots. The second hand had a board reading...           Jimmy Shultz was holding     and took the pot on the river after turning a flush for the best hand. Fellows mucked his hand after seeing what Shultz had.

Zac Fellows took the lead again after winning back-to-back big pots. In the first hand Fellows flopped two pair when the board came      . Fellows was holding    . Shultz flopped had    , so the pot quickly rose to 800,000. On the second pot, Fellows hit a queen on the river to take down another 600,000. Fellows now has 1,700,000.

Shultz was able to stop the rush when his   paired up on the flop. He was able to get a bet on every street and take Fellows back down to 700,000 in chips.

Zac Fellows raises from the button and Jimmy Shultz calls before we see a flop...       Shultz leads out for 50,000 and calls a raise to 100,000 from Fellows. The turn comes...   Shultz check calls a 100,000 bet from Fellows before the river drops...   Shultz checks calls a 100,000 bet from Fellows once more and is relieved to see Fellows turn over     as he's holding    . Fellows down to under 500,000 and Shultz over 2,100,000.

After Shultz taking a slight lead again Zac Fellows has managed to get the chip stacks to roughly even. He won a couple of pots on the flop getting Schultz to fold for for the first time on the flop heads up. Then he won a bigger pot on a board reading...           Holding     to Shultz's    .

Jimmy Shultz has taken a 2-to-1 chip lead after winning the last two pots. The first hand had a board looking like...           Shultz bet out on the river and was called by Fellows. Shultz's     good for that one. The very next hand Shultz bet once again on the river with the board looking as follows...           Fellows made the call but was shown     for the pot. Fellows flashed a   at Shultz. Jimmy Shultz around 1,700,000 Zac Fellows around 900,000

Chips are moving between the two players every hand. Jimmy Shultz took a nice pot off Zac Fellows when he rivered a set of tens but he was winning anyway as Fellows only had a pair of sevens. The next hand some of those chips went back the other way when Fellows forced Shulz to fold on the river after he had called all previous bets.

Fellows took a nice pot back of Shultz on a board showing...           Fellows bet on every street and was called down by Shultz. But Shultz couldn't better Fellows'     Shultz now on 1,800,000. Fellows now on 835,000.

Vinny Vinh was in the big blind and called a raise from Jimmy Shultz preflop. The flop came       and Vinh bet all in. Shultz made the call and turned over    . Vinh turned     and was looking for a queen. The turn was the   and the river the   sending Vinny Vinh home in third place.
