The Summer Season finished August 2, 2007 with two former bracelet winners in the mix, Tim Entwistle (Winter 05/06) and Rene' Rodriguez (Summer 06). Also among the top six, Jim Entwistle, no stranger to a final table and who placed first among the top six money makers this season. Ryan Yu, a strong player who punched and kicked his way to the third position playing in his first full season this summer. Seated in 6th position, Tom Cirrincione, who played strong to keep the others away from his spot by finishing 3rd in game 8 of 10 to hold his ground. Finally, Monica Froman, new to a final table, but a player who seemed to improve her poker skills dramatically each game she played this season. Ryan Yu finds himself short stacked and takes the chance that Froman didn't hit the flop by moving all in with bottom pair after Froman's out of position bet. Yu finds himself drawing to a four to trip up against Froman's top pair of tens. No four to come and Yu finishes in the 6th place. Jim Entwistle is next to wonder where his chips had gone. He flops top pair nines and check raises Tim Entwistle to all-in. Entwistle, with a pocket pair of sixes, catches a third six on the flop and his hand holds up to knock Jim out of the game. Tom Cirrincione, the next short stack catches a pair of sevens against Tim Entwistle's pair of tens. Cirrincione's hand fails to improve and he walks away in the fourth place. Froman begins throwing punches and calls Rodriguez who holds an ace. Froman's pocket pair of eights holds up and awards her the heads up play against Tim Entwistle. The heads up battle lasts 43 minutes. Tim finds himself all in and makes a king high straight, however Froman holds the ace and builds the ace high straight to win the bracelet.
