2008 WSOP Event 24 Winner Max Pescatori

Max "The Italian Pirate" Pescatori shivers the timbers of his final table opponents on the way to his second World Series of Poker bracelet. This final table was no cake walk for the Milan native. He faced some pretty stiff competition on his way to this championship. Not only was he facing proven cash game sharks like Minh Ly, there was a five time bracelet winner in the mix: Allen Cunningham. Eventually they all wound up walking the plank, and Max was the only one left at the helm.
