Dan Harrington wins the WPT Legends of Poker tournament
Poker legend Dan Harrington added another list to his insanely populated resume yesterday when he emerged from the final six at the WPT Legends of Poker to win the championship and 1.6 million in prize money.
The celebrated player and author entered the TV final table in second. Shi Jia “Jack†Li, playing in only his 2nd WPT event, went out in sixth, Michael McClain exited in fifth and Tom Schneider, who started the day with the lead, left in fourth.
That left a final three of Harrington, Thu Nguyen and David “The Dragon†Pham. Nguyen busted in third, leaving Harrington and Pham to battle it out. The tournament lasted until after 1am, when Harrington’s two pair got Pham to put the money in drawing dead on the turn.
