1st Place - Mike Kessler - $14,259Heads-up play doesn't last very long and the final hand is anticlimactic as Mike Kessler (Spotsylvania, VA) defeats Gary Brudner (University Park, FL) to win the Seniors title.
Kessler had a slight chip lead when heads-up play began and was able to slowly build his advantage and eventually knock his opponent out. Brudner, the 2010 Summer Open
Champion, came up short in his bid for a second Seniors title.
The win marks Kessler's return to the poker spotlight after finishing 17th in the 2005 WSOP Main Event.
