Jacob Mitich had the easiest heads-up battle ever — literally — in a $400 buy-in tournament at the Potomac Winter Poker Open when his opponent, William Pinkerton, simply conceded and took second-place money. We're not talking about chump change either as there was a $8,716 difference between first and second-place payouts.
Pinkerton didn't even ask for an ICM chop, a chip chop, a Tomahawk Chop, or any kind of chop. He was down approximately 6-1 in chips and still had more than 10 big blinds. Clearly, he was an underdog at that point, but anyone who has followed tournament poker for more than, oh, five minutes, knows that you're never out until there isn't a single chip left in front of you.
