This time, however, the American closed the gap and took home a gold bracelet.<\/span><\/p> \u201cThis is obviously life-changing money, a huge sum,\u201d Gheba told PokerNews. \u201cBut when I got to the final table, I wasn\u2019t too worried about the prize money jumping around. I don\u2019t think anyone at that table really cared about jumping around in the prize money; they were all very wealthy.\u201d<\/span><\/p> Gheba also thanked high-stakes pros Chance Kornuth and Alex Foxen for helping him stay focused throughout the final table.<\/span><\/p> \u201cI think I was so focused on every hand, every situation, that I didn\u2019t feel the pressure,\u201d Gheba said. \u201cThey ended up cheering me on from the sidelines and taking a picture together, which was really nice. Staying focused, thinking strategically, and playing each hand well in these situations is very important.\u201d<\/span><\/p> Fight for the gold bracelet $\"\"$ <\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h4> At the start of the final day, Miao held a chip lead over the remaining five players, while Gheba remained at the top of the leaderboard for most of Day 3, holding second place in chips. Peter Mugar was the first player eliminated when Liu made a flush on the turn, breaking his pocket aces.<\/span><\/p> Then, the popular and outspoken Ren Lin became active for the first time at the final table, catching Miao's huge bluff on the river with just a pair of eights, and then yelling to the table and his fans, "Who's the best? Tony the Tiger!"<\/span><\/p> Lin fought hard in the four-player battle and even managed to escape the danger zone at one point, but after a few bad hands, he ultimately finished in fourth place. Lin pushed his 8 big blinds into the pot from the button with pocket tens, but ran straight into Miao's two aces.<\/span><\/p> In the three-way battle, the chip lead between Gheba and Miao changed hands several times. Gheba took the lead after a five-raise all-in that forced Miao to fold pre-flop. Liu was eventually eliminated in third place, having gone all-in pre-flop with pocket fives against Miao's suited connector. Miao hit a 7 on the flop, enough to put him in heads-up play against Gheba.<\/span><\/p> Despite Miao entering heads-up play with a chip lead, Gheba quickly turned the tide after winning a massive three-raise pot (going all-in on the river). Shortly after, in the tournament's final hand, Miao went all-in with an overpair on a paired board against Gheba's four-high draw. The turn was a blank, but the river landed a diamond, giving Gheba the victory and his first WSOP bracelet.<\/span><\/p> This victory has also changed Gheba's plans for the remainder of the summer.<\/span><\/p> \u201cYes, it has definitely changed,\u201d Gheba said when asked about his current WSOP schedule. \u201cIt means I\u2019ll be playing in some higher buy-in events, like 25K, etc., which is great overall.\u201d<\/span><\/p> Want to change Texas Holdem from \"can understand\" to \"can win\"?<\/h3> If you want to learn more about Texas Hold'em, you can continue reading\uff1a<\/span><\/p> The Origins of Texas Hold'em: Why is it the World's Most Popular Poker Variant?<\/a> Texas Hold'em Hand Rankings and Showdown Rules (Beginner\u2019s Essentials)<\/a> Texas Hold'em Betting teaching: Check \/ Bet \/ Call \/Raise and Betting Strategy Analysis<\/a> The importance of Texas Hold'em position?
