��The Greatest Father��s Day Gift,�� were the first words uttered from Texas native Larry Wright after he won Event #30: $1,500 2-7 Draw Lowball for $101,975. Wright bested a final table that included Michael "The Grinder" Mizrachi, Andrew "luckychewey" Lichtenberger, Erick Lindgren, and Brandon Cantu.

What was your first thought after you won?

Overcome with emotion, Wright paused for a moment and said, ��I thought of my wife and my daughter who were sitting over there [pointing to the rail].��

Who��s the first person you��re going to call?

My other daughter.

What��s the first thing you��re going to do to celebrate tonight?

I��ll turn it over to my wife. Mrs. Wright obliged and said, ��We��re gonna party.��

What was the first turning point in the heads-up match?

I got in Brandon��s [Cantu]head a little. Cantu played his heart out, but got a little frustrated.

Who was the first person to congratulate you?

My wife.
