Where Are They Now: EPT London Season 6 (2009) Champ Aaron Gustavson

Nível 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

The EPT London continued to grow in Season 6 as 730 put up the £5,250 buy-in to create a prize pool of £3,540,500. The big story that year was the appearance of Peter Eastgate, who was the defending WSOP Main Event champ, at the final table. In fact, he began the final table second in chips behind the USA’s Aaron Gustavson, who held more than a 2-1 lead over Eastgate. Not surprisingly, the duo made it to heads-up play.

After a dinner break, one of the fastest heads-up matches in EPT history took place. Holding a 2-1-chip lead, Gustavson took half of Eastgate’s stack on the first hand of heads-up play. Not long after, Eastgate opened holding and then shoved after Gustavson had raised. Gustavson called with the , and in just seven hands, he clinched victory after the board ran out clean. Gustavson, who had won a $1,500 No Limit Hold’em event at the 2009 Borgata Summer Poker Open just a few months earlier for $53,592, entered the EPT history books and took £850,000 back across the pond.

Gustavson continues to play poker and has plenty of other cashes since his EPT win. The biggest was for $44,856 when he took ninth in a 2010 WSOP $1,500 No Limit Hold’em event. More recently, he won the $1,100 No Limit Hold’em event at the 2012 Commerce Hold’em Series for $14,760.

Gustavson, originally from East Northport, New York, now lives in Playa del Carmen. “I’m super busy with WCOOP and on a very weird sleep schedule,” Gustavson told PokerNews. For more, check out his Where Are They Now interview.
