After two straight evenings without seeing a Team Full Tilt member bring home a bracelet, I started to become concerned. There were five bracelets already in the bag going into Day 22 and some great chances to add more. Greg “FBT” Mueller collected his first World Series of Poker bracelet after a long, difficult final table in the $10,000 Limit Hold’em World Championship.
Deepstack, slow structure limit tournaments truly test the grinders. Chip counts float all over the map and leads constantly changed. It was the second day of 12+ hours at the table playing a game that drives some crazy. It takes a special talent to bring home the title in a big limit event. After 1 in the morning, Mueller finally dispatched his heads up opponent Pat Pezzin of Toronto, ON. Canadians finish 1st and 2nd, eh?
Mueller is a former professional hockey player (see previous post for coincidental comparisons) who was sitting at his final table when it was interrupted when the Stanley Cup was moved to the bracelet ceremony podium. He was mere inches from the top prize in both his former and current professions. After seven final table appearance and two runner up showings, Mueller finally has a piece of history for himself.
