锟斤拷I锟斤拷m feeling pretty good. It锟斤拷s been a long time coming getting this first bracelet. I锟斤拷ve wanted it for a while and am just glad it was pretty easy today,锟斤拷 Baron said in his winner interview. 锟斤拷I锟斤拷m not sure what it means for my career, but it feels good.

Day 3 Action

Ong Dingxiang came into Friday's Day 3 second in chips and never looked back. Dingxiang tallied up numerous eliminations throughout the day including that of Day 2 chip leader Romain Nussmann. Baron was another player who got off to a really hot start on Day 3 after eliminating Hans Joachim Hein, Marc Robinson, Nicholas Dolen, Ryan Brown and Henry Lu.

On Hand #48 of the final table, Stephen Graner opened with a raise to 260,000 from the cutoff, Dingxiang three-bet to 930,000 on the button and action folded to Baron, who four-bet to 2,600,000 from the big blind. Graner got out of the way and Dingxiang tagged along. Baron check-called the 1,700,000 bet from Dingxiang after a flop of jack-high and both players checked a nine on the turn. The river came with an eight putting a jack-high straight on the board. Baron checked to Dingxiang who put out a bet of 6,600,000 and Baron instantly called with a queen-high straight only to see Dingxiang roll over a king-high straight.

锟斤拷I knew if I got to heads up anything could happen,锟斤拷 Baron said. 锟斤拷When we were fourhanded that锟斤拷s kind of what I was thinking.锟斤拷

Dingxiang raked in a monster pot that had over a third of the chips in play. The duo would go on to play more than 100 hands heads up before breaking for the night. During that time Baron essentially evened the stacks.

锟斤拷He wanted to keep going, I wanted to stop,锟斤拷 Baron said of the break. 锟斤拷It was a combination of I had just doubled him up so he had a little momentum and also, I was just exhausted and didn锟斤拷t feel like I was necessarily playing my best. I just wanted to go to sleep and it worked out.锟斤拷

In just the fourth hand of action on Day 4, Baron raised with turned out to be pocket aces and just called when Dingxiang three-bet. Dingxiang bet after flopping top pair of queens with his king-queen and again Baron just called. The turn was a brick and Dingxiang jammed. Baron had him covered, called, and held when a three bricked the river.

Baron is going to relish in the moment today and tomorrow plans to head back home to L.A. for some rest and relaxation with plans of returning to the WSOP later in the summer.

锟斤拷I don锟斤拷t like doing the whole WSOP so I have to try to break it up,锟斤拷 he said. 锟斤拷I锟斤拷m just going home for ten days and then I锟斤拷ll be back.锟斤拷
