ANDREW BROWN WINS 2008 WSOP EVENT #16

Andrew Brown traded chips with well known poker pro Ted Forrest into the early morning hours before he finally managed to get them, all. Event #16, a $2,000 Buy-in Omaha Hi/Lo contest paid $226,483 to Brown for his winning ways. With plenty of friends cheering him on from the rail the young player never showed any fear of the more experienced Forrest answering most raises with a re-raise.

Ted Forrest received $143,420 for second place while Jim Pechac finished third and takes home $88,065. The event featured a field of 553 players.
