2019 World Series of Poker 5th Place: Kevin Maahs

Hossein Ensan raised to 4 million second to act. Kevin Maahs jammed in the small blind for 30.3 million and Ensan called.

Hossein Ensan: 9s 9h
Kevin Maahs: Ah 10h

The Jh 5c 3s flop brought only backdoors for Maahs. The Js turn meant Maahs needed help on the river, but the 4h didn't do it for him.

Maahs took home $2,200,000 for his fifth-place finish.

He opens about his notorious tanking and why it might just be indicative of his "contrarian perspective." He explains why he decided to play starting on Day 2 and what he plans to do with the money.
