This time the famous “Shuffle up and… dealllllll” was presented by Mötley Crüe’s Vince Neil and only after 87 hands later we had a new World Champion.
Joe Cada was able to beat Darvin Moon in a quite short heads up match. Cada won $8,547,042 and the precious WSOP bracelet.

The heads up match got into its 87th hand when Cada raised to 3 million. Moon reraised to 8 million and Cada repopped it all-in. Moon checked his cards twice and decided to make the call.
Cada held 9c9d
Moon had QdJd
This time Moon couldn’t improve when the board read 8c7sKh7c after the river and Joe Cada started his celebration.
