They played for a bit more than 12 hours to decide a winner in the Seniors game and after about a level of heads up play, Kim Graham took down the game over previous winner Brett Worton. Both players have a decent record here on the PPT with Worton winning this event in 2022, and Graham coming runner-up, with his twin brother Keith, in the team event in Series #1 this season. I previously reported they won the event, but I had a brain fart and Kim reminded me that they got it in good against twins Kyle and Ryan Strap, but ultimately lost when the Strap brothers got there against them
Graham had the chip lead to start the final table and held onto it pretty much the whole way through. Runner-up Worton was his main competition for the lead, but Graham always seemed a step ahead when I looked at the stacks. By the time the final hand was played, however, Worton was chipped down to around 200k. He woke up with an ace and got it in, but ran into pocket jacks for Graham. In this case, Graham’s best hand held for him to take down his second career win, but his first in over a decade.
