Doug Polk VS Tom Dwan: 

According to a report by pokernews.com, there were many exciting round 1 match-ups but Doug Polk and Tom Dwan’s battle stood above all the others.

Dwan had fixed the deal in the first match when his king-seven turned to a flush against ace-jack. But then, Polk wasn’t done so he came back to win two more matches. Polk then had a full house when the river opened with king-five. 

Reports stated when Dwan’s deuces were no match to Polk’s sixes, it was the end of the final match. Polk was then paired up with Patrik Antonius for the next round. Patrick then defeated Japanese pop star Gakuto Oshiro aka ‘GACKT’ after the Finnish poker sensation.
