Tournament Notes:

-- The winner was Burt Boutin from Henderson, Nevada. Boutin is originally from Pennsylvania. He was (and remains) a highly-successful stock trader when he is not playing poker. Boutin is 39-years-old. He has three children.

-- With this victory, Boutin officially became the 77th "WSOP Millionaire" in history. He has now won over $1 million at the WSOP dating back to his first cash in 1999.

-- This was Boutin's second WSOP gold bracelet. He previously won the $1,500 Pot-Limit Hold’em tournament back in 2001. That was also his first WSOP cash.

-- By odd coincidence, Boutin won his first WSOP title by defeating David "DevilFish" Ulliot in heads-up play. Six years later at this final table, Boutin was all-in against DevilFish with his tournament life on the line. He spiked a nine for a straight and dashed Ulliot's hopes for revenge. The DevilFish ended up going out in third place. He was forced to watch history repeat itself, as Boutin took the top prize.

-- This was the richest pot-limit Omaha tournament in history, by far. The total prize pool amounted to nearly $3 million. First place paid $825,956.

-- The top 18 money list read like a "Who’s Who" of poker. Ten of the final 18 players hold WSOP gold bracelets. The final table of nine players included a combined seven former gold bracelets previously won

-- John Juanda (with 3 wins), Humberto Brenes (with 2 wins), Burt Boutin (win one win), and David "DevilFish" Ulliot (with one win)

-- The final table will be telecast by ESPN, most likely in July or August. The air date has yet to be determined.

-- After his win, Boutin was asked which of his two gold bracelets in more meaningful. With both of them dangling from his wrist, Boutin proudly proclaimed "this one," which in a way symbolized that each victory has different meaning. He noted that this Pot-Limit Omaha event was one of the toughest poker lineups in history. "They are both special in their own way" he said. "But to win this one versus such a tough field, well that is something that really will stay with me for a long time. I do not think I will be able to sleep tonight."
