Radoja crowned WSOP Heads-Up Champion

Poker pro Mark Radoja added another bracelet to his collection when he bested fellow pro Don Nguyen in the Finals of the WSOP 10k Heads-Up No-Limit Championship. Radoja took home the over $330,000 first place prize and his 2nd overall gold bracelet, his first coming in 2011 5k Shootout, with the Sunday night victory.

Radoja’s road to one of the most prestigious bracelets of the year was not an easy path. In addition to Nguyen, Mark previously defeated Johannes Meyer, Ari Goott, Ankush Mandavia, Alexander Venovski, 13 time bracelet winner, Phil Hellmuth, and one of the original online HU beasts, Justin Bonomo.

For his 2nd place effort, Nguyen takes home over $204,000 dollars.
