Champ: 9th Place - McElwee

$2,500 + $200 Championship Deep Stack NLH  

Matt McElwee (Catonsville, MD)
$14,673

Matt McElwee shoved his short-stack and got looked up by Vitaly Kovyazin.  Matt's A3 was dominated by Vitaly's AK.

An Ace on the flop changed nothing.  Vitaly's kicker was good.

Matt finished in 9th place, earning $14,673.

'MatMan' McElwee is a Captain in the Baltimore County Police Department and lists this final table as his greatest poker accomplishment.  Outside of poker, his family is his greatest accomplishment.  "My wife Melissa is my world" he says.
