Brandon Adams Concedes Galfond Challenge; "Jungleman" Up Next

Down $270,000 to arguably the best pot-limit Omaha player ever, Brandon Adams determined his best course of action was to call it quits early in the Galfond Challenge, and Phil Galfond wins yet again.

The high rollers agreed to play 10,000 hands of $100/$200 PLO on the WSOP.com poker site. But the challenge was called off less than 30% of the way in following a brutal session for Adams on Sunday. As part of the pre-match agreement, Adams is required to pay a $100,000 side bet on top of his losses during the cash games.
