Day 13 at the World Series of Poker only had one final table, but it was a big one.

Mike “The Mouth” Matusow won Event 18, $5,000 No-Limit 2-7 Draw Lowball w/Re-Buys, defeating ‘The Iceman’, Jeffrey Lisandro in heads-up play for his third WSOP bracelet and the first prize of $537,862.

Lisandro began heads-up play with the chip lead, but Matusow won the first 11 hands when the tournament was pared down to two players.

The final table was a monster, with Barry Greenstein (3rd, $225,552), Erick Lindgren (4th, $156,151), Tony (Tony G) Guoga (6th, $78,075) and David Benyamine
(7th, $58,990) all in the mix.

Two final tables are scheduled for today, with four other events taking place as well. Daniel Negreanu is currently the chip leader at the final table in Event 20, $2,000 Limit Hold’em.
