Event 18: 2nd Place - Cook

$2500 + $200 Double Play NL Championship

Adam Cook (Glen Burnie, MD)
$159,886

Adam Cook is the runner-up after losing with pocket 9s to Russell Crane's pocket queens on the final hand. "I didn't want to play a huge pot, but two 9s heads-up is a good hand and I just got it in."

It was only the second hand of heads-up play as Cook was a 2 to 1 chip underdog.

"I ran pretty well and didn't have to show down a lot of hands," Cook says, citing this as his best career accomplishment. "But usually I had it. I feel a played great."

This is Cook's 6th career live tournament cash, which began during the 2010 Summer Borgata Poker Open when he finished 4th in a $200 event ($6,700).
