Taylor Black Bounces Back to Win WPT Five Diamond ($1,241,430)

Taylor Black lost a massive lead at the final table of the World Poker Tour (WPT) Five Diamond World Poker Classic, but he showed some resiliency and still ended up winning the tournament for $1,241,430.

Black entered Day 5 of the $10,400 buy-in event on Sunday with more than half the chips in play. He'd continue to hold a huge lead throughout the first couple hours before finally running into some trouble.

The first four days of play took place inside the Bellagio poker room in Las Vegas, while Sunday's final table was hosted at the HyperX Esports Arena at the Luxor Hotel & Casino.
