HPT SOARING EAGLE: 20-YEAR OLD JAYNE WINS IN FIRST LIVE EVENT

Most 20-year olds spent their Sunday tweeting with friends, maybe watching a little golf on TV with their dads while eating Sunday BBQ but not Jordan Jayne.

Jayne spent his weekend besting a 380+ player field playing his first ever live poker tournament - and along the way, capturing the Heartland Poker Tour Soaring Eagle Michigan Main Event title.

Jayne isn't even old enough to play in most North-American events, including the World Series of Poker which starts later this month - he will have to wait until 2012 to make his WSOP debut.

Here are the Top 10 finishers from the event:
1. Jordan Jayne $165,462
2. Max Weinberg $82,732
3. Stan Miller $49,639
4. Brad Albrinck $38,608
5. Cody Nguyen $33,093
6. James Casement $27,577
7. A. Benidict Castle $18,642
8. Harry Hunter $15,719
9. Peter Skinsacos III $11,307
10. Michael Dunn $9,376
