WORKING OVERTIME: ISAIA OUTLASTS SZABOLCS TO WIN WPT VENICE

It had the makings of one of fastest WPT Final Tables of all-time - that is until we got to heads up play.

Things were going quickly but, once EPT London Main Event winner David Vamplew was eliminated in third place, play between Full Tilt pro Alessio Isaia and Szabolcs Mayer grinded to halt (or at least, what felt like a halt).

They battled for hours on end but, in the end, it's the FTP pro Isaia that collects his first WPT win.

Isaia collects €380,000 and 130 PTPR Points for the win, he now sits fourth on the PTPR Leaderboard.

Maxim Lykov scored for the third time this PTPR season. He joins Shaun Deeb as the only two playres with three PTPR Scores in 2011.
