After a stop for more than four months since it was set up final table with its nine members, at last we have been able to know who became the king of the poker world . Peter Eastgate became the youngest world champion in the history of the championship to be imposed on the heads up to the Russian player Ivan Demidov. As we say, thus becomes the youngest champion of the history to snatch with its 22 anita this record to one Phil Hellmuth who held since 1989.

105 hands are those needed in the heads up for the winner knew that a total of 274 hands at the final table, making has been the longest in history. In this way, we already have the youngest player in history to take the title of champion, the longest final table in history and also the tournament with a few blind largest in history, since it came to 500,000 / 1,000,000. Another interesting fact is that this is the first time that neither of the two finalists were from the United States because it is Eastgate Demidov is Danish and Russian.

When they reached the heads up, Eastgate was the leader in chips, with Demidov had 80,300,000 and 56,600,000. Did not take much to match things, but again Eastgate after a good set of hands managed to distance himself from his rival, but the player refused Russian as a young wild boar and even had moments when it seemed more comfortable than his rival, even going below in chips, making small increases from the position. Eastgate patient expected to reach its time until the end, the time inevitably came when waited for his rival, endured its ups and he succeeded in winning a jackpot that had climbed to over 44 million.

It was from that moment when the Russian head and not lifted soon nothing more than 7 hands down in defeat when his stack was everything into the center of the table showing doubles pairs 4 2 A ladder against a 5 Peter Eastgate.

Was divided in that way the largest jackpot prize in history, with a whopping 9.1 million dollars for the winner and the only “consolation consolante” of 5.8 million dollars for the second classified.
