In international poker news, famed American tournament player John Juanda has added another impressive victory and bracelet to his collection.  Juanda bested an all-star final table that included fellow American’s Scott Fischman and Daniel Negreanu, as well as European pro’s Ivan Demidov and Stanislav Alekhin to win his fourth WSOP bracelet and a prize package totaling £868,800.

 

Juanda was pitted against Alekhin in a grueling heads-up match that lasted over eight hours.  In the final hand, Alekhin, short-stacked, moved all-in pre-flop with A9 and was called by Juanda who held  K6.  The flop came 662, giving Juana trip sixes.  Finally, the 6 fell on the river, giving Juanda quads and the 2008 championship.
