Endlich hat auch Andrew Lichtenberger ein WSOP Bracelet. Beim $3.000 No Limit Hold’em Event # 52 der World Series of Poker (WSOP) konnte er in der Verlängerung den Sieg für $569.158 einfahren.
Einige High Roller Turniere, ein WSOP Circuit Main Event und auch ein WPT Alpha 8 Event konnte Andrew Lichtenberger schon gewinnen, ein Bracelet hatte er bislang aber nicht in der Sammlung.
Als massiver Chipleader ging er ins Heads-up gegen Craig Blight, 39 Hände später konnte er über den Sieg jubeln. Blight kam nie wirklich an Lichtenberger heran, zumeist war es zumindest ein 1:2 Rückstand. Die letzte Hand war dann aber doch schneller da als gedacht. In einem gelimpten Pot check-raiste Blight am Flop 
, am Turn 
checkte 
Blight erneut und callte die Bet von Lichtenberger. Am River 
checkte Blight wieder und sah sich mit einer Bet konfrontiert, die sein All-in bedeutete. Nach einigen Minuten entschloss sich Craig Blight zum All-in Call mit 
für gefloppte Two Pair, Andrew Lichtenberger drehte 
für die Straight um und konnte sich über den Sieg und sein erstes Bracelet freuen.
