Jorgensen is no stranger to a WSOP final table. Out of the four times he's cashed at the series, he's made three final tables and now can add a WSOP bracelet to his growing collection of poker accolades.
Though the Scandinavians can at times be a stoic lot, the affable Jorgensen is a notable exception and nothing could wipe the ear-to-ear grin off his face as he wrapped his first bracelet around his wrist and posed for the cameras. That's two out of three now for the Danes at the WSOP-Europe, as his fellow countryman Jesper Hougaard took down the ￡1,500 No-Limit Hold'em event earlier this week.
Congratulations to Theo Jorgensen, tonight a happy man indeed as he left the stage to celebrate with his friends.
It all happened on a
flop, and in a matter of seconds too. Jorgensen bet 100,000, Mizzi reraised, Jorgensen pushed all in, Mizzi called and we had our showdown.Jorgensen =

for the nut flush draw."Heart!" yelled a slightly intoxicated Annette Obrestad from the rail. "Seven of diamonds!" exclaimed another. "Pair the f***ing board!" screamed Jorgensen, refusing to mince his words.
In the end, it was the second of those requests that mysteriously came true, the blank
turn being followed by a harmless 
river, delivered straight from the Twilight Zone."Woooooooo!" screeched Jorgensen as the collective shoulders of Mizzi and his Mizzilites dropped in unison. With a battered and bruised Mizzi staring dejectedly down at the felt, the jubilant victor jumped into the arms of fellow countryman Martin Vallo and the two Danes proceeded to celebrate their nation's second triumph of the week. An incredible feat, and one that will have the North Americans turning green with envy.

In a moment of madness, Tabatabai raced up to the table to give Mizzi a big wet kiss on the cheek. The timing of this platonic (or, so I hope) show of affection was probably not the best, as Mizzi had just lost an all-in for the bracelet. Otherwise I'm sure he would have reciprocated.
