Overview
- Ian Cohen won the World Poker Tour title in Hollywood, Florida on Wednesday after a long heads-up duel with Pro Football Hall of Famer Richard Seymour.
- Cohen earned $645,800 and a $10,400 seat to the season-ending WPT World Championship at Wynn Las Vegas, while Seymour took home $430,000.
- Seymour started the six-handed final as the shortest stack with 28 big blinds and surged by doubling twice with ace‑ten to reach heads-up play.
- Leads swung back and forth until the last hand put Cohen’s pocket sevens against Seymour’s pocket tens, and a seven on the flop ended the match.
- The $3,500 event drew 1,417 entries for a $4,534,400 prize pool, and Seymour’s runner-up finish marked the largest cash of his poker career.
