| saw three
previous Bracelet winners, Deeb, Devilfish and Annie Duke (ex-woman world
champ) take on local Vegas talent and some boys from all over the U.S.A. From a
week chip position the Devilfish showed them all how pot limit Omaha is played
and professionally eliminated his illustrious opponents until it was heads up
with a good player from Mississippi. On form it should have been a walk over
but after one amazing call of a bet, Devilfish's confidence was wounded and
then his cards dried up. The last hand saw Devilfish bet everything on the flop
having made top pair, Kester called with an over pair that stood up.
