Event #2: H.O.R.S.E.
A stranger to most, Jesse Klein started the final table with the second stack and outlasted everybody. Combining a grand total of 5 Hendon Mob lines before the win, the last being a 12th place in a $1,000 tournament in 2010(!), he defeated a 22 bracelets table. Phil Hellmuth missed his chance of 16th bracelet and finished 6th for $95,329.
Here are the notable finishes in this event:
