US-Profispieler Loren Klein hat bei der WSOP in Las Vegas das $10.000 Pot-Limit Omaha Championship Event gewonnen und seiner Bankroll damit etwas über eine Million Dollar hinzugefügt. Für Klein war es das dritte Bracelet in drei aufeinanderfolgenden Jahren.
Im Heads-Up bezwang Klein den ebenfalls dreifachen WSOP-Gewinner Rep Porter, der als Runner-Up immerhin noch $629.378 abräumte. Landsmann Brandon Shack-Harris, der den Tag als Chipleader begann, wurde am Ende Dritter für $433.259.
Für etwas Aufregung sorgte die Baseball-Cap mit Trumps Lieblings-Slogen „Make America Great Again“, die Klein bei seinem Triumph trug und auch nicht für die Siegerfotos abnahm. In einem Interview nach seinem Sieg gab er an, dass er sich bereits auf die vielen Hater freue.
