The 888poker ChampionChip Games came to a thrilling conclusion on September 6 when the United Kingdom's "The_Hoff_Man" staged an impressive comeback to win the $60 buy-in Main Event for $26,202. "The_Hoff_Man" sat down at the nine-handed final table with the second-fewest chips, but managed to turn around their flagging fortunes despite sitting down with only 12.5 big blinds in their arsenal.
The victory was the third by a player sporting the Union Jack flag next to their alias, which proved enough to secure third place in the overall medal table.
