EPT LOUTRAKI: HESEDING RUNS OUT OF ALIGATOR BLOOD, ZIMNAN THE MAN IN GREECE

It took a while ... actually, it took a long heck of a while ... but, Zimnan Ziyard is the winner of the first ever EPT Loutraki Main Event.

Ziyard had to survive a pesky Hauke Heseding - who was up for a long fight. Heseding was down to a few big blinds three handed but refused to go away. He kept on chipping up and chipping up - he even held the chip lead at times when we were three handed and heads up. Heseding was a game opponent but, in the end, it was Ziyard who had the final say, picking up his second PTPR Score of 2011 - he had a sixth place finish at this summer's WSOP in the 3K PLO event.
