WARNING WSOP Spoiler

WARNING this is a Spoiler, if you are waiting to see the final table on ESPN Tuesday night please don’t read this post.

We are down to heads up in the 2009 World Series of Poker and I am happy to say that Michigan’s own Joe Cada is there with the chip lead.

The final two were set Sunday morning around 9:00 a.m. est and we have Joe Cada with $135,950,000 in chips, and Darvin Moon with $58,850,000 in chips.

The hand that got us to heads up is posted below, text is from the Poker News website, you can view the text and the replay of the hand on there website here:

Hand #276 -

Joe Cada has the button. He opens the pot to 2.5 million, and with it comes the final betting actions of the night. Antoine Saout makes an all-in re-raise behind him, enough to quickly fold Darvin Moon and his big blind. Cada, though, wastes little time making the call with his covering stack, and we’ve got a serious situation on our hands. Saout is now the one at risk of elimination, and he will soon find out that he’s flipping a coin for, oh, a couple million dollars:

Cada: Ad Ks

Saout: 8s 8h

“Ace in the window! Ace in the window!” plead Cada’s posse. Saout’s fans are murmuring in French, clearly a bit nervous for their countryman.

The crowd is punchy and tired and well-lubricated with alcohol, and the noise is awfully loud considering the relatively small crowd still left here in the wee hours. As the tension mounts, the dealer finally runs out the flop: 5h 4s 5c . That’s safe for the at-risk Saout, two cards from his double up.

The turn is safe too; the 10d changes nothing. The river, though, changes quite a bit indeed. Like a bolt of thunder, the Kc strikes the board and Cada is mobbed by a throng of yellow-shirted fans after taking the pot with his pair of kings. Saout’s side of the room falls absolutely silent as their man can only shake his head and shake the hands of the two left standing before walking off the stage.

With Antoint Saout exiting in 3rd place, the final heads-up pairing is set for Monday. Saout officially earns $3,479,670 for his remarkable efforts here in the Main Event, but his bid for poker glory has fallen just two places short.

Joe Cada seems to be  running good and we wish him the best and  hope it continues for him when play resumes on Monday. If Cada can get the win here, it will make him the youngest player to ever win the WSOP Main Event. Peter Eastgate took the title of the youngest player to win the Main Event away from Phil Hellmuth last year, Cada has the chance to take over the title this year.
